Horizontalism, Structuralism, Liquidity Preference and the Principle of Increasing Risk

Abstract: It is shown that the horizontal post-Keynesian view of credit-money endogeneity is reasonable rather than extreme. One can argue in favor of a horizontal credit-money supply curve while still taking into account the nonaccommodating behavior of the central bank, financial innovations, portfolio adjustments, liquidity preference theory, and the principle of increasing risk. The differences between horizontalists and other post-Keynesian monetary theorists are matters of emphasis rather than substantial differences of opinion. The only real topic of contention is the ultimate determinant of the base rate of interest. Copyright 1996 by Scottish Economic Society.
