Abstract:
In scientific publications on the problems of monetary relations, modern monetary theory is defined as a
system of views that have been formed over the past twenty years by a group of American and Australian
economists, mostly university professors. The main impetus for the development and popularization of modern
monetary theory was the need to create a scientific concept for overcoming such problems of the American
economy as the accumulation of huge public debt, chronic budget deficits and high unemployment. This theory
offers a universal solution to these problems.
This article shows how this theory is able to cope with the current global financial and economic crisis; The
article also analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of modern monetary theory.
