A Qualitative Framework

Anthony M. Endres

Chapter 1 in International Financial Integration, 2011, pp 1-15 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The ideas of economists proposing either to construct, or change or reform international financial arrangements are by their very nature informed by underlying doctrines. Those doctrines make assertions about how the international economy functions, and incorporate methodological preconceptions on how to collect, interpret and evaluate evidence on the international economy. As well, economic doctrines usually embody specific policies and practical suggestions for change and reform. For economists the ‘political economy’ of international monetary organization differs sharply in content from ‘international political economy’ — a subject of prime concern to political scientists intent on analysing international monetary relations, international politics and diplomacy, and the deeply political aspects of inter-governmental relations that play vital roles in making international monetary systems (Best 2005; Cohen 2008a and 2008b).
