«La economía monetarista» is the economic essay by Milton Friedman and Daniel Zadunaisky, published by GEDISA in paperback (in Spanish).
It gathers essays presenting the central ideas of the monetarism of Milton Friedman, a leading figure of the Chicago School. Against Keynesian policies, he defends a moderate and constant growth of the money supply and maintains that only economic stability makes it possible to consolidate political stability. The volume opens with an introduction by Sir Alan Walters.
Originally published as 'Monetarist Economics' in 1991; this Spanish edition was published in 2010 and belongs to the Biblioteca Económica Gedisa collection.
Aimed at readers interested in the debate between Keynesianism and monetarism and in Friedman's influence on Western economic policy.
Milton Friedman was an American economist and statistician who received the 1976 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences for his research on consumption analysis, monetary history and theory and the complexity of stabilization policy. With George Stigler, Friedman was among the intellectual leaders of the Chicago school of economics, a neoclassical school of economic thought associated with the faculty at the University of Chicago that rejected Keynesianism in favor of monetarism before shifting their focus to new classical macroeconomics in the mid-1970s. Several students, young professors and academics who were recruited or mentored by Friedman at Chicago went on to become leading economists, including Nobel laureates Gary Becker (1992), Robert Fogel (1993), and Robert Lucas Jr. (1995).
