Policy Against Inflation (1958)

By Roy F. Harrod

Book Overview

Policy Against Inflation is a book written by economist Roy F. Harrod in 1958. The book focuses on the issue of inflation and proposes various policy measures to combat it. Harrod argues that inflation is a destructive force that can lead to economic instability and social unrest. He explores the causes of inflation, including excessive government spending, increases in the money supply, and rising wages and prices. Harrod also examines the role of central banks in controlling inflation, and suggests that they should use monetary policy tools such as interest rates and reserve requirements to regulate the money supply. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of inflation and its consequences, and offers practical solutions for policymakers to address this economic problem. It is a valuable resource for economists, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the causes and effects of inflation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
