Money, Income, and Profit : Lessons from the Monetary Theory of Production

Carrera, Andrea ; Rossi, Sergio

In: Iberian Journal of the History of Economic Thought, 2015, vol. 2, no. 1, p. 48-60

In this paper we analyze Augusto Graziani’s numerous contributions to the monetary theory of production, which he developed from a theoretical but also a policy-oriented perspective. We focus on the rejection of the neoclassical dichotomy, the causal relation between production and money creation, and the definition of macroeconomic saving. These three dimensions of Graziani’s work can be...

The Euro Must Be Abandoned to Achieve European Monetary Integration

Rossi, Sergio

In: International Journal of Political Economy, 2016, vol. 45, no. 1, p. 72-84

This article explains why the euro has to be abandoned in order to integrate the euro- area member countries monetarily.

The Dangerous Ineffectiveness of Negative Interest Rates : the Case of Switzerland

Rossi, Sergio

In: Review of Keynesian Economics, 2019, vol. 7, no. 2, p. 220-232

This paper argues that the negative interest rate adopted by the Swiss National Bank in 2015 has elicited a series of negative consequences across the Swiss economy. It has led an increasing number of agents to invest their savings in the real-estate market, whose prices have overheated, threatening the eruption of a housing crisis. It has also induced a number of financial institutions to turn...

Central Banks’ Contribution to Financial Instability

Rossi, Sergio

In: Bulletin of Political Economy, 2020, vol. 14, no. 2, p. 203-217

Financial stability has been a largely-debated issue since the bursting of the global financial crisis in 2008. Central banks seem to have discovered that price stability on the market for produced goods and services is not enough to avoid financial instability through monetary policy interventions. This paper explains that, in fact, both pre- and postcrisis interventions by monetary...
