Max Corden's highly acclaimed \u003ci\u003eInflation, Exchange Rates, and the World Economy\u003c\/i\u003e, this book addresses topics in international macroeconomics that have come to the forefront of economic policy debates in recent years. Covering exchange rate policy, the European Monetary System, protection and competition, and the international \"non-system\" since the collapse of Bretton Woods, Corden provides a probing analysis of significant economic trends associated with the increasing integration of the world capital market.\u003cp\u003eBeginning with essays on exchange rate policy, the current account, and external effects of fiscal policy, Corden lays out the foundations of balance-of-payments theory in relation to wage rates, income distribution, and inflation. Chapters on the European Monetary System focus on monetary integration and look skeptically at European proposals to move toward monetary union. Other topical essays discuss the \"competitiveness\" problem and the relation between protection and macroeconomic policy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCorden summarizes and clarifies a vast range of work on the coordination of macroeconomic policies and critically reviews various proposals for reforming the international monetary system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"OUP Oxford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49819869184240,"sku":"9780198774099","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780198774099_p0.jpg?v=1784231729","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780198774099","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
