MONEY BETWEEN ECONOMIC PRINCIPLES AND POLITICAL POWER.

Power as an ability to produce certain changes in separate societies and in the world has a great influence on national economies and global economic relations. However, it is rarely found as a factor in economic analyses. It does not mean that power is not present in economic relations. It comes to the fact that the changes made under the influence of power are considered to be something which is presented objectively and thus they are not discussed. In fact, they are “taken for granted”. Subjects only have to find a way to adjust the made changes and under such conditions to gain a place in the domestic and foreign markets even when the “produced changes” generate unfavourable results both in the domestic and international economic relations. In this context, the relation of power in terms of money functioning is particularly illustrative. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
