New Issues in Regional Monetary Coordination: Understanding North-South and Sout

Description: New Issues in Regional Monetary Coordination by B. Fritz, Martina Metzger 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). FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description 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.
