Excerpt from The Silver Question and the Gold Question
The silver question and the gold question as monetary questions cannot be separated. When the disturbance of the old relative value of the two precious metals began to show itself, it was the fall in silver only that at first engaged attention; but it soon became apparent that while silver had fallen, gold had at the same time become appreciated in its purchasing power, and evidence to this effect has of late years become overwhelming. Is this rise in the value of gold connected with the fall in the value of silver? How much also of the apparent fall in silver is due to the enhanced value of the gold standard in which we measure it?

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the monetary system, particularly the controversial topic of bi-metallism, and its impact on international trade and economics. The author begins by examining the history of bi-metallism, highlighting its use throughout history and its role in stabilising the relative value of gold and silver. The book then delves into the debate surrounding bi-metallism, presenting arguments both for and against its adoption. The author discusses the potential benefits of bi-metallism, such as reducing exchange rate volatility and promoting international trade, as well as the challenges associated with its implementation and maintenance. Through a comprehensive analysis of historical data, the book sheds light on the complex relationship between the supply and demand of gold and silver and their impact on the monetary system. The author argues that the disturbances caused by the demonetisation of silver have led to a significant appreciation in the value of gold, resulting in imbalances in international trade and economic instability. The book concludes by emphasising the need for international cooperation in establishing a bi-metallic monetary system. The author believes that by restoring the historical equilibrium between gold and silver, it is possible to create a more stable and equitable international monetary system that supports global economic growth and prosperity.
