THE CASE AGAINST 2 PER CENT INFLATION - BRENDAN...

This book analyses the controversial and critical issue of 2% inflation targeting  currently
practised by central banks in the US  Japan and Europe. Where did the 2% target inflation
originate  and for what reason? Do these reasons stand up to scrutiny? This book explores these
key questions  contributing to the growing debate that the global 2% inflation standard
prescribed by the central banks in the advanced economies globally is actually contributing to
the economic malaise of these nations. It presents novel theoretical perspectives  intertwined
with historical and market understanding  and features analysis that draws on monetary theory
(including Austrian school)  behavioural finance  and finance theory. Alongside rigorous
analysis of the past and present  the book also features forward looking chapters  exploring
how the 2% global inflation standard could collapse and what would ideally follow its demise 
including a new look at the role of gold.
