Plus Ca Change... Plus C'est (Presque) La Meme Chose - A Review of Barry Eichengreen's: Golden Fetters

No 275602, Foerder Institute for Economic Research Working Papers from Tel-Aviv University > Foerder Institute for Economic Research

Abstract: This paper reviews Eichengreen's book and argues that coordination in the past was less important than he considers it, and in the present and future less possible than he suggests. It argues also that the 'golden fetters' of the interwar years may have been endogenously-imposed constraints on policy, the result, not the cause of the restrictive policies engaged in by a number of countries.
