 Bullionism - Economics Dictionary of Arguments
 
Bullionism: Bullionism was an 18th-century economic theory that emphasized the importance of gold and silver as a measure of a nation's wealth. It argued that the balance of trade should be positive, with more precious metals coming into the country to strengthen its economy. Bullionism influenced early mercantilist policies.
