Not Just the Great Contraction: Friedman and Schwartz's A Monetary History of the United States 1867 to 1960
记录了弗里德曼和施瓦茨的《美国货币史》的巨大影响力，并指出其成功关键在于运用叙事方法识别货币政策对经济活动的影响。
Milton Friedman and Anna J. Schwartz published A Monetary History of the United States: 1867 to 1960 with Princeton University Press in 1963, to critical acclaim. Since then the book's reputation has grown and it clearly has become one of the most influential volumes in economics in the twentieth century. In this paper we document the extraordinary impact of A Monetary History and argue that the key to this success was the use of the "narrative approach" to the problem of identifying the effects of monetary policy on economic activity.
