-Titulo Original : Exorbitant Privilege The Rise And Fall Of The Dollar And The Future Of The International Monetary System
-Fabricante :
Oxford University Press
-Descripcion Original:
Recent events in the US--high unemployment, record federal deficits, and unprecedented financial distress--have raised serious doubts about the future of the dollar. So profound has been the impact that some say the dollar may soon cease to be the worlds standard currency. Is the situationthat bad? In Exorbitant Privilege, one of our foremost experts on the international financial system argues that while the dollar is bound to lose its singular status to newcomers like the Euro and the Chinese Renminbi, the coming changes will be neither sudden nor dire. Barry Eichengreen putstodays crisis in historical context, revealing that only after World War II, with Europe and Japan in ruins, did the dollar become the worlds monetary lingua franca--the reserve currency of the worlds banks and the kind of cash accepted virtually everywhere. Now, with the rise of China, India,Brazil and other emerging economies, America no longer towers over the global economy like before. And the U.S. itself faces very serious economic and financial challenges as it contemplates its medium-term future. But despite this, Eichengreen concludes, predictions of the dollars demise aregreatly exaggerated. The paperback edition features a new afterword that takes the story up through 2012.
