Economisti del cinque e seicento by Montanari, Scaruffi, and Serra

"Economisti del cinque e seicento" by Augusto Graziani is a historical account published in the early 20th century. The work delves into economic theories and practices during the 16th and 17th centuries, focusing particularly on the use and regulation of gold and silver as currency. It sets out to illuminate past monetary issues while proposing solutions for a standardized and fair monetary system. The opening of the book presents a preface and initial chapters discussing the historical context of currency, where the author, Gasparo Scaruffi, addresses issues relating to the lack of regulation in the values of gold and silver. He emphasizes the importance of establishing a universal order for currency to mitigate chaos in financial transactions resulting from fluctuating values of these precious metals. Scaruffi articulates how historical abuses in minting practices caused significant economic disorder and lays the foundation for discussing his proposed reforms for currency regulation in subsequent chapters.
