Produktbeschreibung
The debate about the choice of exchange rate regimes for developing countries has occupied a central stage in macroeconomic policy since the creation of the Bretton-Woods system back in 1944.

The argument is that this shift might led to enhance macroeconomic stability and reduced inflationary pressures.
