Writings

Chown was a member of the Association of Monetary Union in Europe. He is the author of "A History of Monetary Unions" (Routledge 2003),[9][10] and has contributed a chapter, "Lessons of Monetary History", to the new IEA study, "The Euro – the Beginning, the Middle … and the End?" (April 2013) and reviewed for Central Banking, Harold James "Making the European Monetary Union" (February 2013).

Two articles and several other reviews in Central Banking deal more generally with the financial crisis. His article "Conflicts of Interest and Systemic Risk" Central Banking, November 2010, discusses improper (and therefore unsustainable) profits made by banks, and their potential threat to financial stability, and is a follow-up to an earlier article in November 2009, "Towards a New Banking System". He has contributed chapters to more that fifteen books on the topics of tax reform and monetary policy.

Chown published "End to Underwriting: How the Coalition can avoid being Ripped Off", Centre for Policy Studies, August 2011. Chown was invited to give evidence to the House of Lords Committee in late 2011[11] and followed this with a publication "Time To Bin The Tobin Tax" Centre for Policy Studies, April 2012.
