An institutional model of the term structure of interest rates.Lermer, George. January 1963 (has links)
Despite the accepted synthesis between the “real" and “monetary" economies, questions remain unanswered in the financial sector of the economy. Though these sectors were once considered separate, "real" or “value theory" methodology has dominated study of both areas. This thesis advances the proposition that the “financial sector” cannot be studied using the analytic tools of "value theory” alone. In particular, controversy continues concerning the relevance of the "expectations” hypothesis of the term structure of interest rates as opposed to the “institutional” hypothesis. Our thesis attempts a rigourous exposition of the “institutional” hypothesis. We describe how this hypothesis is a logical implication of the “balance effect”.

On the effectiveness of Canadian monetary policy, 1945-60.McLeod, Donald. January 1963 (has links)
Authority for the establishment of a central bank in Canada was first conveyed by the Bank of Canada Act of 1934. Central banking operations commenced in the following year. From 1935 monetary management, in the modern sense of a central bank playing a key role in the financial affairs of a country, has characterized Canadian economic development. It has been argued that the Bank of Canada in the early years of its existence did not at all times function at that high level of performance that is generally expected of institutions of that sort. But it would not be unreasonable to associate the early deficiencies of Canadian central banking with the growing pains of a fledgling institution.

China’s national interest: a comparison of nationalist and communist views.Richardson, Ann. B. January 1963 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is to explore the concept of the 'National Interest' as seen through the writings and speeches of China’s leaders, Chiang Kai-shek and Mao Tse-tung. The definition of the 'National Interest varies among Western theorists. Generally speaking, the 'National Interest’ may be termed the driving force of international politics, the essential framework for the definition of state objectives and the conduct of policy. A leading theorist, Hans J. Morgenthau, explains that the controversy which surrounds the concept of the 'National Interest' has its; roots in the two different schools of thought, “utopianism” and "realism”.

The role of mortgage banking in the Canadian Economy.Sussman, Edmond. January 1963 (has links)
This study is oriented around the belief that it is the role of mortgage banking to tap the flow of available savings for the purpose of providing an 'adequate' of the flow of mortgage funds. The 'adequacy' of the flow of mortgage funds is tested in this thesis by the following criteria: Do the mortgage lenders supply sufficient funds to finance a new residential construction programme of sufficient size to house the new families continually being formed? Do the mortgage lenders supply sufficient mortgage funds to maintain the position of mortgages in the capital market vis-a-vis other forms of long-term debt? Is the mortgage instrument sufficiently attractive to financial institutions to induce them to give mortgages an important place in their investment portfolios?

A study of Werner Sombart’s writings.Varsanyi, Nicholas. A. January 1963 (has links)
In the first decades of this century, Professor Werner Sombart was regarded as one of the greatest German economists, but a controversial figure even within his own country. The task of these pages is to analyze his teachings and doctrines, to assess his contributions to economies, and to determine how his approach to economies differed from that of his great western contemporaries. Few economists have been as prolific as Sombart. He wrote many books and treatises and innumerable journal articles. This work, which culminated in his description of the economies of societies in all epochs from the Carolingians to his own, must be added to many compilations of a statistical kind. The total is enormous. It represents an amount of work and research seldom found in the lifetime of one man.

International trade and economic development a case study of Trinidad and Tobago.Augustin, Wilma. M. January 1964 (has links)
The above passage is indicative of the pervasive nature of trade. The importance of trade was recognized, not only by Mercantilist writers who gave it first place in economic development, but even the Physiocrats who relegated it to a subordinate position bad to pay attention to the fact that through trade a country must obtain the goods it cannot produce within its boundaries. Adam Smith also who gave priority to agriculture, stating that capital should first be used in agriculture and the excess invested in trade, paid attention to the benefits that can be derived from international trade. Smith was preoccupied with economic development in relation to the range of the market. The wider the market, the greater the chance for economic growth. He saw trade as the medium of growth via extended markets.

The economics of the state-owned industrial enterprise in Poland.Feiwel, George. R. January 1964 (has links)
This chapter will be predominantly concerned with the institutional framework of the nationalized industrial sector of the Polish economy in order to throw some light on the setting and constraints which surround a state-owned industrial enterprise. However, prior to the exposition of the present administrative and planning systems we shall attempt to present to the reader the highlights of the evolution of these systems. For that purpose we shall concentrate on some of the aspects of the development of the centralized planning system in Poland after World War II through the Three-Year Plan of reconstruction and the Six-Year Plan of intensive industrialization, with particular stress on the latter.
