Freiburg School

The Freiburg School, developed at the University of Freiburg in Germany, is an economic theory primarily focused on monetary policy and its impact on the economy. It emphasizes the importance of controlling the money supply and interest rates to manage inflation, unemployment, and economic stability. The school advocates for central banks to actively regulate monetary conditions rather than rely solely on fiscal policy or market forces. Its ideas influenced the development of modern central banking and monetary policy strategies, promoting the view that careful monetary control is key to sustainable economic growth.
