The Role of Home Goods and Money in Exchange Rate Adjustments

Anne O. Krueger

Chapter 7 in International Trade and Finance, 1973, pp 141-161 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Ever since Alexander’s introduction of the ‘absorption’ approach, there has been a certain schizophrenia in balance-of-payments theory. On one hand, the macroeconomic identity that a payments deficit means that expenditures exceed income suggests that analyses of the balance of payments should proceed upon macroeconomic lines. On the other hand, analysis of exchange rate adjustment is, almost by definition, analysis of a relative price change.
