John Stuart Mill made essential contributions to social theory, political theory and political economy. He has been called "the most influential English-speaking philosopher of the nineteenth century".
However, John Mill was also an important contributor for the foundation of modern monetary theory. John Mill's views on monetary theory were developed with his methodological approach, in which reactions to practical problems directed theoretical inquiry, instead of theory developing separately from policy questions. Mill’s focus on monetary theory at his time was how to deal with the periodic recessions and financial disruptions that were occurring.
John Mill looked into the economic aspect of the monetary theory through this essay. He argued in this essay “Everybody who borrows at interest, and keeps his engagement, pays more than he borrowed. The question is not, have we paid more than we borrowed? but, have we paid more than we contracted to pay? And the answer is, we have paid less.”
The work influenced Irving Fisher who completed his great works such as The Debt-deflation Theory of Great Depressions and The Theory of Interest .
John Mill is known as one of the founders of economics. This is a must-read book for people who are interested in the deepest thoughts about monetary theory by John Mill, one of the greatest thinkers on the planet.
