As the Swiss people ponder over their European destiny and the future of Switzerland's status of permanent neutrality, some commentators have raised the question whether the ICRC will be able to maintain complete independence — whichever way Switzerland turns — in conducting its humanitarian operations based on the fundamental principles of the Red Cross.

Abstract. This paper modifies the simple classical model by introducing capacity utilization that varies across the course of the business cycle. By making the capacity usage a choice variable that turns out to be sensitive to changes in the price level, we show that the classical model loses its fundamental feature, namely the neutrality of money. In our generalized framework, a rise in money supply improves upon all the real variables if the economy suffers from excess capacity, as in recessions and depressions. We demonstrate that our model describes the various economic cross‐currents during the Great Depression extremely well. Thus, monetary policy emerges with an activist role even in a generally classical setting.
