The book unfolds in three parts, first establishing the historical context of the gold standard, tracing its origins and perceived benefits, and then examining the factors that undermined it, such as economic pressures and the rise of Keynesian economics. Finally, it explores the post-gold standard era, delving into the rise of fiat currencies and increased global market interconnectedness.
The book uniquely emphasizes the long-term consequences of abandoning the gold standard, examining its enduring impact on financial stability, economic inequality, and international power dynamics. It employs historical sources and economic analysis to provide a nuanced account of this pivotal shift in economic history.
