At first glance, the modern history of the global economic system seems to support the long-held view that the leading world power's currency—the British pound, the U.S. dollar, and perhaps someday the Chinese yuan—invariably dominates international trade and finance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eHow Global Currencies Work\u003c\/em\u003e, three noted economists provide a reassessment of this history and the theories behind the conventional wisdom. Offering a new history of global finance over the past two centuries and marshalling extensive new data to test established theories of how global currencies work, Barry Eichengreen, Arnaud Mehl, and Livia Chit?u argue for a new view, in which several national monies can share international currency status, and their importance can change rapidly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThey demonstrate how changes in technology and in the structure of international trade and finance have reshaped the landscape of international currencies so that several international financial standards can coexist. They show that multiple international and reserve currencies have, in fact, coexisted in the past, upending the traditional view of the British pound's dominance prior to 1945 and the U.S. dollar's dominance more recently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLooking forward, the book tackles the implications of this new framework for major questions facing the future of the international monetary system, from whether the euro and the Chinese yuan might address their respective challenges and perhaps rival the dollar, to how increased currency competition might affect global financial stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Aotearoa New Zealand","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47596601770220,"sku":"9780691177007","price":103.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/47d79fb4c8419ee5111c949123cfa021.jpg?v=1777940898"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/barry-eichengreen.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
