Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to challenge two widely-held myths about Ricardo's theory of money and to suggest between the value and the quantity of money owes nothing to a commodity-theory of money (Section 2) or to the Quantity Theory of Money (Section 3) but puts the market price of the standard of money centre-stage (Section 4). Ricardo's applied pronouncements on money then appear as direct consequences of this theory (Section 5). Publication: Deleplace, G.
