Abstract
In part 5 of the third volume of Capital, Marx analyzed the relationship between the monetary and credit systems in mid-nineteenth-century England. He argued this relationship shaped the complex form that crises took in 1847, 1857, and 1867, as well as the contradictory role and effectiveness of the Bank of England in managing those crises.
