Monetarism is an economic theory that focuses on proper control of the money supply. Monetarists attest that a steady annual increase in the money supply is critical for economic growth. They have a strong belief in the competitiveness, and self-correcting abilities of "The Markets." Therefore, they do not believe in government intervention (discretionary fiscal policy), or monetary policy.

Milton Friedman
Monetarism and classical liberalism both emphasize the importance of free markets, but they differ significantly in their focus and policy implications. Monetarism, pioneered by economists like Milton Friedman, prioritizes the control of money supply as a key tool for managing economic stability and inflation, advocating for minimal government intervention in the economy. In contrast, classical liberalism encompasses a broader philosophical framework that champions individual liberties, limited government, and free markets, often emphasizing moral and ethical dimensions alongside economic efficiency. While both advocate for market mechanisms, monetarism is more narrowly focused on monetary policy.
