Features:This book argues that the instability of money and finance is rooted in the production and trade of capitalism and the flaws of the monetary and financial mechanism. Therefore, although some policies can alleviate or exacerbate instability, there is no policy combination that can make monetary and financial systems completely harmonious. The author draws important ideas from Japanese political economy that Anglo-Saxon economics lacks and provides a systematic, new Marxist analysis, making this book a significant work in radical political economy.
