International Monetary Study Syllabus [Instructor] MURASE Tetsuji [Syllabus Planning] International Monetary Study, I In Search of a New Monetary Order in Asia History and Contemporary Issues of the Euro Economy The international monetary framework is now in the process of gradual, but fundamental transition. In the past half century, the US dollar enjoyed the status of an unchallenged international key currency, playing the role of a gravity center of the world monetary order. The introduction of the euro in 1999 is likely to change the whole picture of the post-war monetary hierarchy. The single currency of the European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) will gain its importance as a second key currency, thus transforming the inherited unipolar monetary system to a bipolar one. In the face of such an irrevocable movement in the relative weight of the American and European currencies, Asian economies, damaged heavily by the Asian financial crisis, have not found a clear direction yet as to what kind of monetary regime is most appropriate for their economic development and stability in the future. Presently there is no existence of a monetary system or order which can be collectively called the “Asian Monetary Order.” Japan, with by far the largest GDP share in Asia, has failed so far to make the yen the leading currency in the region. Should each Asian country go its own way in adopting its currency/exchange regime, as they did before the Asian crisis? Should Asia, as a regional bloc, cooperate to establish a new regional monetary arrangement, independent of the US dollar or euro zones? What role should and can the Japanese yen play in Asia and the world?

Current International Monetary System European Monetary System Following the collapse of the Bretton woods system on August 15, 1971, the EEC countries agreed to maintain stable exchange rates by preventing exchange fluctuations of more than 2.25%. This arrangement was called "European snake in the tunnel" because the community currencies floated as a group against outside currencies such as the dollar. By 1978, the snake turned into a worm (with only German mark, Belgian franc, Dutch guilder, Danish krone). However, a new effort to achieve monetary cooperation was launched. By March 1979, EC established European Monetary System, and created the European Currency Unit (ECU). Prevent movements above 2.25 % around parity in bilateral exchange rates with other member countries. The European Monetary Cooperation Fund allocates ECUs to members' central banks in exchange for gold and dollar deposits. 20% of the quota must be paid in gold. ECU was an artificial currency and used in all intrasystem balance of payments settlements. It was the precursor of euro introduced on January 1, 1999. provision of credit facilities for compensatory financing.

HOME PAGE Money on the Move: The Revolution in International Finance since 1980 Robert Solomon Shopping Cart Reviews Table of Contents Search within this book at Google Print The international monetary system has changed radically in the last twenty years. Capital, information, goods, and services move around the globe with unprecedented ease. Countries from the former communist bloc have joined the system. Europe is on the verge of monetary union. Financial crises in East Asia and Mexico have rocked the world economy. In this book, Robert Solomonauthor of the definitive history of the monetary order between 1945 and 1981presents the first comprehensive history of these and other aspects of this revolution in international finance. Authoritative, accessible, and elegantly written, the book will be indispensable for anyone who wishes to understand how today's international monetary system works. Throughout, Solomon relates developments in the international monetary system to macroeconomic conditions in the countries involvedarguing that it is impossible to understand one without understanding the other. As a clear, thorough, and unusually perceptive account of global finance and monetary economics in the late twentieth century, Money on the Move will be vital reading for economists, policymakers, and general readers. Reviews: "Solomon . . . does a credible job of explaining the rise of the U.S. dollar and its fall by the mid-1980's. . . . Of particular note is the chronology of economic events since 1980."

Globalizing Capital: A History of the International Monetary System Eichengreen, Barry J. Published by EH.NET (October 1997) Barry J. Eichengreen, Globalizing Capital: A History of the International Monetary System . Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1996. viii + 223 pp. $24.95 (cloth), ISBN: 0-691-02880-X. In 1892 the English economist Robert Giffen published an article entitled "Fancy Monetary Standards." Objecting to a recent proposal for a new monetary standard aimed at stabilizing the purchasing power of money, Giffen observed that "Governments, when they meddle with money, are so apt to make blunders...that a nation which has a good money should beware of its being tampered with." If we mess with the gold standard, in other words, "we can never tell...what confusion and mischief we may be introducing." (1) A generation later, the gold standard was not only tampered with, but largely dismantled. The international monetary system has been witness to a great deal of "confusion and mischief" ever since, including such "fancy" payments arrangements as the IMF, the EPU, the BIS and the EMS, elaborate multinational structures designed by international committees, and regularly shorn-up by exchange controls, stand-by arrangements, SDR's, gold-pools, and other ad-hoc devices aimed at forestalling major devaluations. The ultimate failure of all such arrangements, as well as the abandonment of the international gold standard itself, has led Berkeley economist Barry Eichengreen to wonder whether any system of fixed, or at least relatively stable, exchange rates can survive in a world of democratic governments.

I try to understand how what's going on now will affect your pocketbook next week, next month, next year. It is my sole intent to help you consider the possibilities which will, in turn, help you prepare for your financial future. One of the most important aspects of your financial survival concerns your understanding of the nature of money. If you believe that precious metals do not constitute "money", you may have been misled. If you have been misled, who misled you? Why? And "What's wrong with this picture"? What is money? The whole point of money is suppose to be the provision of a convenient and liquid medium that can be exchanged for less liquid value. It is a go between. One strives to accumulate money so it can be exchanged it for something else. In our illustrious history, we humans have tried everything from salt to sardines as a medium of exchange, but nothing has seemed to work as well as gold and silver. A person bringing a relatively illiquid item to market could swap it for gold or silver, secure in the knowledge that the metal would retain its value for as long as he chose to hold it and would be accepted as payment for anything he wanted when he chose to spend it.

Global Economy BOOK REVIEW Economic doomsday The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures by Richard Duncan Reviewed by David Peters The US economy is on the verge of collapse, and the whole world is going down with it. Or so Richard Duncan would have us believe. His new book The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures offers an unabashedly alarmist view of the imminent unraveling of the global economy - an outcome he argues has now become unavoidable. And as a longtime financial analyst in Asia who predicted the impending collapse of the Thai economy as early as 1993 and worked as a consultant for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) during the height of the Asian crisis, he knows a thing or two about financial crashes. Duncan traces the current "crisis" to the end of the Bretton Woods monetary system in 1973. With the global monetary base indirectly tied to gold, the total volume of reserve assets worldwide grew by just 55 percent between 1949 and 1969 - an average of 2.2 percent per year. Since then, reserve assets have mushroomed by almost 1,900 percent, or about 9.7 percent annually.
