Abstract

This paper is arranged as follows. Section I discusses definitions of ‘monetarism’ and proposes a very general meaning which can be derived, with minimal restrictions from a widely accepted model of the economy. We suggest that the two principle propositions to be tested are (a) that there is a stable demand for money and (b) that changes in the money supply have been an independent source of changes in prices. Section II examines the long-run relationship between money and nominal income. It reports previous empirical studies and also presents long-run graphical evidence. Section III examines in more detail the question of ‘causality’. The conclusions are summarised in the final section.
