New Issues in Regional Monetary Coordination (eBook, PDF)

Understanding North-South and South-South Arrangements
Redaktion: Fritz, B.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book argues for a new conceptual framework that analytically distinguishes between North-South monetary co-ordination, which involves an international key currency, and South-South arrangements between economies all marked by external indebtedness and the resulting macroeconomic instabilities ('original sin'). In this light, the book analyzes different types of monetary co-ordination, ranging from ad hoc exchange rate policy agreements to projects of a common supranational currency, and it examines selected regional cases in Eastern Europe, North and South America, Africa and Asia.
