Episode 8 · Until Further Notice: Emergency Decisions in Money and Credit and the Records of Their End, c. 1750 BC – AD 2023

Who Is Blamed: Diocletian 301 and the South Sea 1720

Whom do the texts of two episodes of trouble with prices blame, the preamble of Diocletian's Edict on Maximum Prices of 301 and Mackay's account of the South Sea year of 1720, does the measure follow from the blame, and do the modern records keep it? The preamble blames a few sellers and makes them alone pay; Mackay spreads the blame across a nation; the modern records keep at most one of who is blamed, who suffered and who pays.
