Abstract
It is quite easy to make even rather straightforward issues complicated. By contrast, to make complex theoretical issues comprehensible is much less straightforward. Be that as it may, we will try to keep the discussion of how to bridge the gap between monetary circuit theory and the post-Keynesian monetary theory as simple as possible. For that purpose, the collection of papers edited by Rochon and Rossi (2003) is a very useful anthology.
