Review Horizontalists and Verticalists: The Macroeconomics of Credit Money / Cambridge University Press:Challenging the validity of much of mainstream monetary macroeconomics, Basil Moore argues that the money supply in modern economies is not under the control of central banks, but is not under the control of central banks, but is determined by borrower demand for bank credit. Horizontalists and verticalists then explores the implications of this perception for conventional macroeconomic theory. In his analysis, Moore distinguishes sharply between commodity, fiat, and credit money. he argues that much of mainstream macroeconomic theory is appropriate to a world of commodity or fiat money, but not to contemporary credit money economies. mainstream analysis takes the view that central banks have it in their power to initiate exogenous changes in the nominal supply of money. This 'Verticalist' view maintains that monetary change originates in changes in the high-powered base, which allegedly are under the control of the central bank. The author, in contrast, contends that the supply of credit money is endogenous and responds to changes in the demand for bank credit. Central bank open-market operations affect how required reserves are supplied between borrowed and nonborrowed reserves, rather than the total volume of reserves that is endogenously determined. This 'Horizontalist' view holds that central banks have the ability to set exogenously the supply price of the money market, but not the quantity of credit money. It follows that all models that treat the supply of credit as exogenous are fundamentally misspecified. [+]Conventional views about the forces determining the money supply, national income, interest rates, exchange rates, inflation, and the role of saving are fundamentally in error. Moore concludes that a new macroeconomic paradigm must be developed and attempts to initiate the larger task of theory reconstruction that lies ahead.

Review The Art of Cloaking Ownership: The Secret Collaboration and Protection of the German War Industry by the Neutrals: The Case of Sweden / Amsterdam University Press:After years of intensive research in archives throughout Europe and the U. S. , the authors of The Art of Cloaking Ownership discovered that firms located in 'neutral' Sweden supported the Nazis' financial and industrial leadership. The case of Enskilda, a bank owned by the still powerful Wallenberg family, proved to be particularly interesting. Among other things, Enskilda acted as a cloak for the Nazi regime and helped important German corporations like Bosch, IG Farben and Krupp to hide their foreign subsidiaries in order to avoid confiscation by the Allied governments. This fascinating book, offers a dramatic picture of the tangled web of relationships connecting capitalism, power and politics during the Second World War.
