Abstract

Lloyd W. Mints (1888–1989) was a key member of the early Chicago School in the field of monetary economics. He has been mainly remembered, to this day, for his book A History of Banking Theory in Great Britain and the United States (1945) and his criticism of the “real bills doctrine”. His views on money and banking were generally in line with the Chicago tradition of monetary theory of the 1930s. Yet, his contributions of the late 1940s and early 1950s reflected a departure from that tradition in some respects, foreshadowing the views of Milton Friedman—with whom he interacted in the later part of his career. Despite its role in the evolution of Chicago’s monetary economics, Mints’s work has been somewhat neglected in the literature. This chapter attempts to remedy this neglect.
