When Money Dies: The Nightmare of the Weimar Hyper-inflation

When Money Dies: The Nightmare of the Weimar Hyper-inflation

Relato detallado de la hiperinflación alemana de los años 20 del siglo XX. Quizás esta frase del epílogo condensa lo que pasó en aquellos terribles años:

“Stability came only when the abyss had been plumbed, when the credible mark could fall no more, when everything that four years of financial cowardice, wrong-headed ness and mismanagement had been fashioned to avoid had in fact taken place, when the inconceivable had ineluctably arrived.”

Tras leer este libro, se entiende mejor aún la actual postura alemana con respecto a la crisis y las políticas fiscal y monetaria en la UE.
