Cam believes in an economy that is centralized in such a manner that it creates the largest amount of profit for the state. In order to achieve independence of self-sufficiency, to create material prerequisites for achieving the universal, spiritual good.

Cameralism was born in 18th century [[File:Cball-Germany.png]] Germany to [[File:Merc.png]] [[Mercantilism]], as a way to deal with different conditions of much of northern and central Europe as compared which Mercantilism wasn't suited to as much as those of Western Europe. Cameralism grew out of the relatively backward economic, social and political structure of Germany, which was a result of the Thirty Years' War (1618–1648). The economic crisis that followed was also a consequence of the deep political split in the state. Cameralism suggested organizing public administration on a functional basis, that is, each institution had to be in charge of its own special area of ​​government. The central link was financial institutions, which were clearly divided into bodies involved in collecting funds, bodies that concentrated these funds and disbursed them for expenses, and, finally, bodies that maintained independent financial accounting and financial control.

All institutions had uniform principles for the form of various types of documents, approved rules for the “movement of papers,” their accounting and circulation in the bowels of the office. F. L. von Seckendorff first wrote about it in his famous work “The German Princely State” in 1656. His ideas were developed by prominent theorists of mercantilism J. Becher, F. Gernig and W. Schröder, who saw the state as the main engine of economic development. They considered the state to be something like an “economic partnership” in a society divided into classes, which was called upon to take care of increasing the population and its well-being.
