It includes contributions on Austrian monetary dynamics and micro-foundational business cycle theory, von Mises’s concepts of liquidity and solvency of fractional-reserve banks, and liberalism of Austrian economics.

The second part analyzes the measures taken by the European Central Bank (ECB) in light of the ideas of von Mises and Hayek.

It includes contributions on non-neutrality of money, ECB monetary policy, and the future of the ECB.

The third and final part presents discussions on monetary reforms, including contributions on Bitcoins, Cryptocurrencies and anti-deflationist Paranoia.
