Abstract: The choice of the instrument variables to achieve the specified objectives of stabilization and structural adjustment policies is heavily influenced by the stage of development of economic institutions. The specification and characteristics of developing countries make the operation and survey of such instruments somewhat different. Since the late 1950s, the scope and method of stabilization and structural adjustment policies and programs have gradually expanded. This requires the expansion of our understanding of the economic theory behind such policies. A survey of developments in monetary issues, such as money supply and money stock policy, is part of such expansion. The purpose of the paper is to survey and analyze the theoretical developments that have taken place in money supply and credit expansion as the main instrument of monetary policy. Such a survey will show to what extent the ideas are supported by empirical evidence gathered by developing countries.
