Quantum economics (a.k.a. quantum macroeconomics, a.k.a. the theory of money emissions) is a branch of monetary economics developed by French economist Bernard Schmitt (1929), former Professor at the University of Burgundy, in Dijon, France, and at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. Another important adherent and contributor in quantum economics is Swiss economist Alvaro Cencini (1946), active at the University of Italian Switzerland, in Lugano, Switzerland.

  • Quantum economics (a.k.a. quantum macroeconomics, a.k.a. the theory of money emissions) is a branch of monetary economics developed by French economist Bernard Schmitt (1929), former Professor at the University of Burgundy, in Dijon, France, and at the University of Fribourg, Switzerland. Another important adherent and contributor in quantum economics is Swiss economist Alvaro Cencini (1946), active at the University of Italian Switzerland, in Lugano, Switzerland. Besides the aforementioned universities, the school is researching also through the Research Laboratory in Monetary Economics, at the Centre of Banking Studies (CSB), in Vezia, Switzerland. The school aims to contribute to the development of the scientific understanding of the way our economic systems work, with particular reference to their monetary disequilibria and to how these could practically be dealt with. It is no mystery that inflation and unemployment are the source of serious troubles, which hinder the further growth of wealth as well as its distribution. Likewise it is widely admitted that exchange rates instability, stock exchange fluctuations and external debt are the main causes of disruption at the international level. It should also be recognised that our understanding of these anomalies has improved very little in the last century, and that economists are too often at a loss when asked to provide a diagnosis and propose a remedy. Quantum economics offers a new approach, based on a modern conception of bank money and capable of conveying the teaching of the greatest economists of the past, together with the main contributions of practitioners (bankers in primis) towards the setting up of a monetary theory of national and international economic systems. What is needed is a theory consistent with the nature of book-entry money and capable of accounting for the process of capital accumulation and circulation. The work carried out by the school is intended to help with this task and to provide the elements for a national and an international reform apt to modify the present system of payments consistently with the laws of (bank) money.
