He contends that the well-being of political democracy depends on a fuller understanding of the centrality of money in politics, and he presents his ideas on monetary policy, corruption and reform, banking in politics, private power within a democracy, money in international relations, and the system-destroying effects of money. Bretton considers the subject of money and democracy in the context of how monetarization of societies proceeded from antiquity to the Industrial Revolution, and he analyzes the formative years of the United States in terms of being based on political ideas that did not take account of monetarization. He reviews what social theorists and economists from Aristotle to Friedman have thought about the role of money in society and how it affects individual behavior and social norms.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The title of this autobiography reflects a major milestone in my life. The dream refers to my desire to enter a university after high school and become a professor, an idea planted in my head by my mother. The shadows intervened in several ways. First, directly bearing on my ultimate goal were the discriminatory laws imposed upon Germany by Hitler, solely to artificially validate his illusions about race and ethnicity. Another shadow that darkened my perception of the world was the loss of my son. Fulfillment occurred when I became a distinguished professor at the highest levels of my profession.
