This collection of essays from leading economists in the MMT debate offers the reader a range of viewpoints from which to become informed about what is set to be a significant part of economic policy discussion in the coming years.“This stimulating book provides a clear account both of what Modern Monetary Theory entails and of the many objections to it. Its great value is that it will make readers have to think for themselves through many fundamental issues of macro-economic theory and policy.” - Charles Goodhart, London School of Economics“The merits of Modern Monetary Theory have become the most contentious issue in Post Keynesian macroeconomics. This remarkable volume presents the full range of opinions on MMT, from its enthusiastic proponents to its severest critics, with intermediate positions (critical support; sympathetic scepticism) also being set out. The book is essential reading for everyone with an interest in heterodox macroeconomic theory and policy.” - John King, La Trobe University & Federation University Australia“Recently Modern Monetary Theory has generated a lot of heat in newspaper columns and blogs, but relatively little in the way of light. This collection offers an urgently required, more considered treatment, challenging readers to think about the role, sources and implications of sovereign currency and money creation as social processes. The volume addresses the crucial question of what MMT would mean for practical workable policy agendas and the design and function of macroeconomic governance at an epochal moment when the future of the planet and social order is at stake.” - Andrew P. Baker, Sheffield University, UK“Modern Monetary Theory has found its moment in the sun. One advocate, Stephanie Kelton, is chief economic advisor to Bernie Sanders; Forbes, The New Yorker, and many newspapers, have published pieces on it. This balanced and readable collection is an excellent place to go for those wanting to understand this economic doctrine.” - Steven Pressman, Colorado State University & Co-editor, Review of Political Economy"So much has been written about MMT in the press that one gets at best a superficial understanding of its rich and penetrating implications. Criticism from this circle tends, as a result, to be ill-informed and misleading. Not true of the current volume, however. Here we find honest and carefully considered critiques and affirmations of what may stand as the foundation of a progressive and forward-looking transformation of advanced market economies." - Roy J. Rotheim, Skidmore College, USContributions from: L. Randall Wray, Trond Andresen, Phil Armstrong, Bruno Bonizzi, Annina Kaltenbrunner & Jo Michell, David Colander, Paul Davidson, Dirk H.
