Edwin Walter Kemmerer, Théoricien et Médecin de la Monnaie

Gomez Betancourt, Rebeca 04 December 2008 (has links) (PDF)
L'objectif de la présente thèse est de mettre au jour la richesse de la pensée monétaire d'Edwin Walter Kemmerer (1875-1945). Nous soulignons sa contribution à la théorie quantitative de la monnaie, à la théorie de la banque centrale et à l'analyse de l'étalon-or. Nous présentons “le médecin” et théoricien de la monnaie en quatre chapitres. Le premier aborde sa formation intellectuelle et les idées politiques qui accompagnaient ses propositions de réforme monétaire et bancaire. Le deuxième chapitre analyse l'équation d'échange, la notion de Business confidence et le « test » statistique construit pour valider la théorie quantitative. Le troisième chapitre traite de la participation de Kemmerer au processus de création de la Réserve fédérale américaine en 1913 : sa vision des problèmes persistant sous le National Banking System de 1863, son étude du marché monétaire américain en 1910, son plaidoyer, et ses propositions, pour la future banque centrale. Enfin, le quatrième chapitre expose les différents types d'étalon-or proposés par Kemmerer, mis en oeuvre dans certaines colonies et dans certains pays de l'Amérique latine, en particulier le Gold Exchange Standard dont il est un des précurseurs. La conclusion aborde la question de l'oubli dont Kemmerer est l'objet.

Seed Reserves in Stockpiled Topsoil on a Coal Mine Near Kemmerer, Wyoming

Johnson, Cynthia K. 01 May 1984 (has links)
The objectives of this study were to determine how seed reserves varied with depth in topsoil stockpiles and to evaluate the effect of length of time of storage on the number of viable seeds and number of species of seeds. Soil samples were taken from five topsoil piles representing zero to three years of storage on the Elkol-Sorenson mine near Kemmerer in southwestern Wyoming. Seeds were extracted using flotation/separation methods and were tested for viability using 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride solution. Data were analyzed using nonparametric statistical tests. Overall density of seeds in topsoil piles was low. No relationship was found between depth into the topsoil pile and the number of seeds or species. The number of seeds and species in the topsoil pile showed no decrease with increasing length of time of storage. The proportion of annual species in the seed reserve was not shown to increase with length of time of storage. Comparisons were made between the species composition of the seed reserve in the topsoil piles and the species composition of vegetation on sites selected to represent the sites of origin of the topsoil. Factors affecting the density, species composition and species richness of stored topsoil were suggested to be the plant community on the soil to be removed, depth of soil removed, and timing of topsoil removal.
