Distinctively tying history with theory, political economist Joseph
A. Schumpeter reached far back in time to understand what drives
economic development and determines its course. Historical and
empirical research provided a laboratory for learning. At the same
time, he reached for a long-term vision through theoretical
inspection and utmost abstraction, seeking to distil a phenomenon's
essential nature and function. He believed that good theory can
indicate where the economy is headed in the future. Schumpeter's
attention to history and theory also informed the plan for this
book. Part I trails the historical stream of financial innovations
and the scholarly struggle to assimilate them in monetary thought,
while Part II focuses on Schumpeter's own monetary theory. Its
deliberate reconstruction from scattered sources reveals a
strikingly original and still modern conception. Drawing from the
detailed study of documents at various archives in Austria, Part
III then concentrates on the business history of Schumpeter's
failed personal endeavours in banking and as a proto-venture
capitalist. Finally, Part IV casts light on the legacy of
Schumpeter's monetary ideas on contemporary thought. It depicts how
monetary theory initially left them behind, yet has more recently
set out to return to his ideas on money, financial innovation, and
growth. Overall, a surprisingly coherent picture emerges from the
study of Schumpeter's neglected monetary theory, his personal
history, and his intellectual legacy on the present day.
