A propos de cet article

Neuware - Money and Credit - Volume IV Austrian economist Prof. Antal Fekete has published his Opus Magnum in 4 volumes or about 900 pages. This final volume contains several proposals to recover economic science and reinstate Carl Menger's main tenets. The economic abuses, conundrums, crises, aberrations, unemployment, credit abuse and general evaporation of savings cast a large shadow over mainstream economic science. These conundrums and financial crises are of their own making and solutions are at hand !

Synopsis

Prof. Antal E. Fekete schreef zijn Magnum Opus in de traditie van de Oostenrijkse Economische School. Een werk onderverdeeld in vier volumes en meer dan 900 bladzijden. Dit vierde volume bevat een reeks verwijzingen naar geavanceerde economische onderwerpen zoals de futures markt of ook de economische aspecten van een edelmetaal mijn. Naast deze meer geavanceerde onderwerpen, bevat dit werk een punt-per-punt weerlegging van alle argumenten die de huidige economisten aanhalen om toch maar geen aandacht te moeten schenken aan de goudstandaard. Paul Krugman is de kop van jut en Antal Fekete treedt met hem in ‹ debat › schriftelijk dan, met een voorspelbare ondergang voor Krugman. Terecht, hij had maar betere argumenten moeten aanbrengen op het niveau van een winnaar van een nobele prijs. Het blijft echter bij wat stemmingmakerij aan de kant van de orthodoxie. In een laatste onderdeel werd een bloemlezing aangehaald over monetaire ‹ crackpots › maar de kansen zijn gekeerd. Om te verstaan hoe dit is kunnen gebeuren, zal u echter de andere boekdelen moeten lezen.

À propos des auteurs

Antal E. Fekete, Professor, Memorial University of Newfoundland, was born in Budapest, Hungary, in 1932. He graduated from the Loránt Eötvös University of Budapest in mathematics in 1955. He left Hunga- ry in the wake of the 1956 anti-Communist uprising that was brutally put down by the occupying Soviet troops. He immigrated to Canada in the following year and was appointed Assistant Professor at the Me- morial University of Newfoundland in 1958. In 1993, after 35 years' of service he retired with the rank of Full Professor. During this period he also had tours of duty as visiting professor at Columbia University in the City of New York (1961), Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland (1964), Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia (1970), Princeton Universi- ty, Princeton, New Jersey (1974). Since 2005 he has been Professor at Large of Intermountain Institute for Science and Applied Mathematics (IISAM), Missoula, Montana. Professor Fekete is an autodidactic expert on monetary economics. During his associations with various universities and institutions he has done research and lectured on economics. On one such occasion, in 1974, he gave a talk on gold in the seminar of Paul Volcker, then Senior Fellow at Princeton University, soon to be named as President of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and, later, as Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board. In 1984 Professor Fekete was invited by the American Institute for Economic Research in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, to spend a year there as Visiting Fellow. He served as Editor of the Monograph Series of the Committee for Monetary Research and Education, then headquartered in Greenwich, Connecticut, while contributing several monographs to the Series, reproduced on his website. He also acted as Senior Editor for the American Economic Foundation in Cleveland, Ohio, and produced the popular pamphlet series Ten Pillars of Sound Money, also reproduced in Volume I of this series. When in 1984 South Africa celebrated the 100th anniversary of discovering gold in the Wit- watersrand, at the conference Gold 100 commemorating that event in Johannesburg, Professor Fekete delivered the keynote address entitled Gold in the International Monetary System, also reproduced on his website. In 1985 Congressman William E. Dannemeyer of Fullerton, Califor- nia, invited Professor Fekete to join his staff in Washington, D.C., to work on fiscal and monetary reform. While on this assignment, last- ing for five years, he gave numerous lectures on Capitol Hill as well as in California. Ultimately the proposals hammered out in Congres- sional offices under his chairmanship were taken to the White House by a delegation of ten Republican Congressmen led by Congressman Dannemeyer. According to these proposals the runaway government deficit could be reined in by refinancing the entire U.S. government debt through issuing gold bonds. The historic meeting took place in the Oval Office in October, 1989, and was duly reported by The New York Times. Having listened attentively to the presentation of Mr. Dannemeyer, President George Bush, Sr., instructed his Treasury Sec- retary, also present at the meeting, to let the Congressional and Treas- ury staff meet and put forward a joint proposal. This initiative came to nought as the Treasury deliberately derailed negotiations through procrastination
