International Bimetallism and the Battle of the Standard is a book written by Emile de Laveleye in 1881. The book explores the concept of bimetallism, which refers to the use of two metals, usually gold and silver, as a standard for currency. De Laveleye argues that bimetallism would create a stable and flexible monetary system that would benefit international trade and economic growth. The book also delves into the historical and political context of the debate over bimetallism, particularly in Europe and the United States during the late 19th century. De Laveleye examines the arguments for and against bimetallism, including the impact on national economies, the role of banks and financial institutions, and the influence of powerful interest groups. De Laveleye's writing is clear and concise, making the book accessible to both scholars and general readers. He provides a thorough analysis of the economic and political implications of bimetallism, drawing on historical examples and contemporary debates. Overall, International Bimetallism and the Battle of the Standard is a seminal work on the topic of bimetallism and its impact on international finance and trade. It remains relevant today as debates continue over the role of gold and other metals in the global economy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
