I conduct research and
teach in the fields of money and banking, macroeconomics, and economic
history. In my research, I apply
the tools of economic history, institutional analysis, and monetary
economics to understanding the evolution and performance of monetary
institutions over time. My current research
explores the effect
of regulatory decentralization on the rise, monetary role, and
incidence of unincorporated banking in the U.S. from the demise of the
Second Bank of the United States in 1832 to the creation of the
national banking system in 1863. I also have new research on
the role of early central, or public, banks in the 18th and 19th
century transition from metallic to paper money systems in
Anglo-American economies. In my current
administrative role, I am assisting the Provost with the management of
academic budgets and academic facilities. |
