Rethinking Economics Norge | Webinar: Money creation, destruction and the monetary system - with Beniamino Callegari @RethinkingEconomicsNorge | Uploaded April 2020 | Updated October 2024, 24 minutes ago.
As a response to the coronavirus and the current lockdown we are all facing we are launching a series of webinars. They will be open to everyone who wants to participate and we will invite a scholar to talk about a topic of relevance to what we are now facing. This webinar is the first in our series.
How is money created? How is it destroyed? Does it make sense for a country say it "cannot afford" something? And where do the money for stimulus packages come from? These questions will be much debated in the coming months.
As stimulus packages worth trillions of dollars are implemented and millions of people around the world are on temporary government benefits, monetary systems are as important as ever to understand.
Beniamino Callegari is a researcher at Høyskolen Kristiania and lecturer at the BI Department of Innovation and Economic Organisation. For several years he has taught courses on financial bubbles, crashes and crises and has always maintained a keen interest in monetary systems.
