Weimar Germany after World War One went through one of the worst hyperinflations in history, unleashing untold horrors on the German people and their economy. Memories of Weimar still haunt the eurozone today.
The European Central Bank, widely considered to be the only institution with the firepower to stem the euro crisis, is somewhat restrained by the legacy of the German Bundesbank. The Bundesbank — established in well after Weimar — for years before joining the euro was extremely conservative in expanding the money supply because of what happened during the Weimar years.
And 90 years later, Germans are reminded of the perils of the printing press, whether or not the comparison is truly apt. Adam Fergusson authored a book on the subject, entitled When Money Dies — and many consider it to be the definitive work on the Weimar hyperinflation. It used to be out of print and a bit hard to find, but now you can find it in its entirety online.
Germany hoped that it would quickly win the war and reap bounty from the nations it conquered, which — to the government — justified the use of the printing press to fund it:. It may have been true — there is no reason to doubt it — that a short, sharp war and a speedy victory in had been both hoped for and expected.
Together with the prospect of eventual war indemnities extorted from the Entente, this would possibly have justified taking temporary liberties, even outrageous ones, with the known laws of finance The German government appealed to patriotism to fund the conflict, using slogans like "I gave gold for iron," and "Invest in War Loan. Every German stock exchange was closed for the duration, so that the effect of Reichsbank policies on stocks and shares was unknown. Further, foreign exchange rates were not published, and only those in contact with neutral markets such as Amsterdam or Zurich could guess what was going on Only when the war was over, with the veil of censorship lifted but the Allied blockade continuing, did it become clear to all with eyes to read that Germany had already met an economic disaster nearly as shattering as her military one.
