- Title
Mere quibbles: Bagus and Howden's critique of the theory of free banking.
- Authors
Selgin, George
- Abstract
Despite its title, Philipp Bagus and David Howden's critique of The Theory of Free Banking does more than merely 'quibble' with that book's arguments; their criticisms of those arguments are such as to suggest that the very foundation upon which my defense of free banking rests is deeply flawed. Here, I defend my work against Bagus and Howden's criticisms, by showing that they rest upon careless or disingenuous readings of my arguments and a poor grasp of basic monetary economics.
