‘The Cause of Ye Wast of the Silver or Bullion of England’: A New Document from Thomas Mun’s Age

A chapter in Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology, 2016, vol. 34A, pp 375-401 from Emerald Group Publishing Limited

Abstract: A hitherto unknown manuscript from the 1620s, whose only extant copies appear to be in Dublin, shows the balance of trade being forcefully developed, without the concern for the East India Trade that marks Thomas Mun. It goes on to consider economic and monetary policy, particularly the relative valuation of gold and silver, more closely.
