Schwartz Chapter URL: http://www.nber.org/chapters/c13538 Chapter pages in book: (p. 27 – 55) 2 Exchange Market Policy in the United States Precedents and Antecedents 2.1 Introduction Exchange market operations had considerable precedent in policies fol- lowed in Europe during the classical gold standard era from 1870– 1913 and in the gold exchange standard between 1925– 1933. It also had antecedents in US history going back at least to the Wrst decade of the nineteenth century. Under the classical gold standard, the trilemma as outlined in chapter 1 was solved (at least in theory) with perfectly Wxed exchange rates, open capital markets, and no role for monetary policy. However in practice, in the classical era from 1870 to 1913, the assumptions needed to make this work did not hold completely. The classical Humean adjustment mechanism did not work perfectly because wages and prices were not perfectly Xexible, labor was not perfectly mobile, and there were real and Wnancial frictions and shocks.
