At the turn of the 15th century, there were several European cities that boasted well-developed money markets. Bankers used bills of exchange to exploit exchange-rate differences between these markets in order to earn a profit. de Roover in several publications provides anecdotal evidence that these bankers were successful. Using daily exchange rates from 1384-1411 for Bruges, Flanders and Barcelona, Spain, we confirm his conjecture by documenting that trading profits over this period may have averaged 12% to 13% after transaction costs.

Beyond the respective functioning of the classical gold standard and the interwar gold-exchange standard, one of the main differences between both periods was the degree of labour mobility. While the pre-1914 world was characterised by massive migration flows, the interwar years were marked by a dramatic fall in labour movements, owing to the adoption of restrictive immigration policies in the main receiving countries. As a result, labour mobility could no longer play the adjustment mechanism role that it did during the classical gold standard. Indeed, the existence of a number of adjustment constraints, including wage rigidities and factor immobility, led those countries with fixed exchange rates to adopt counterproductive adjustment mechanisms, such as trade protectionism, that result...

The official data indicate a much less severe impact of the international crisis on employment and on the incomes of wage-earners and pensioners in Italy than might have been predicted. But the standard measure of unemployment agreed at international level has some shortcomings. For one thing, the "objective" definition of unemployment is a poor fit with the Italian labour market. And for another, the emergence of "semi-employment" - the alternation of brief periods of work with periods of unemployment or economic inactivity - and the considerable increase in labour hoarding make the state of the market hard to read. This article offers a more in-depth examination of the impact of the crisis, using labour force survey data to count workers on wage supplementation, the semi-employed and ...
