Attributes the onset of the Great Depression to the workings of the international gold standard. The study provides a history of French gold policy and the Bank of France, re-examines interwar bank co-operation, and looks at how gold standard rhetoric fostered misperceptions of financial problems.
Did French gold policy cause the Great Depression? The Gold Standard Illusion draws on newly-available French records to test the gold standard interpretation of the Great Depression. It provides a history of French economic understanding, policy-making, and politics with regard to gold, monetary policy, and the key role of financial problems in political instability from 1914 to 1939.
