Dissertation note: Dissertation Committee: Dr. Duncan Foley, Dr. William Milberg, Dr. Perry Mehrling. PhD Dissertation, New School University, 2000. Summary: This dissertation re-examines central banking ideas in England in the formative period of central banking (1793-1877). It builds on the postulate that money, like language and other symbolic orders, is a structure and central banking, a practice in the symbolic, is a function consisting in stabilizing the credit system. The credit system follows two operative laws, namely metaphor or substitution and metonymy or displacement. Monetary ideas, historically, are found to be either imaginary or symbolic.
