... However, you should maybe read "Debt, the first 5000 years", by Graeber. It illustrates somewhat the fact that most money found actually its origin, not in markets, but by states, wanting to finance war and needing the seigniorage to pay their armies.
If we can take a slightly smaller view, say over the last five hundred years, we should recognize the success of the "Westphalian" system. (The Peace of Westphalia set forth the principles of territorial integrity and non-intervention between European states, after the carnage of more than a century of warfare. Notwithstanding Napolean, Hitler, Putin, etc. the system is largely successful, especially since the non-European world has largely adopted the spirit over the last hundred years.)
In the post-Westphalian world, even the biggest international contest and driver of monetary inflation, ie the rivalry between Britain and France in the 18th century, saw most conflict happen outside Europe. Today's conflicts, say, between China and other countries, are over small bits of territory.
Absent the real need to protect people against foreign aggression, monetary control and inflation has no real justification in today's world.
