description | The applied economics understands the concept of
money nearly exclusively through the quantitative theory, which certainly
remains one of the greatest theories in this topic area. On the other hand,
the history of money – be it old or contemporary -- finds two other “nonquantitative”
theories as more relevant in the respect that they are able
to “cover” this history – these are representative and fiat money. Then,
there comes the interesting point: this history “covered”, meaning a full
explaining of facts would be made by the two theories and images of the
same money just “together”—which is impossible in basic good sense
terms, as money (as anything else) cannot be real and fictitious value in
the same time. |
