Balance of Payments Adjustment: Macro Facets of International Finance Revisited

Author: Augustine C Ariz

A detailed analysis of the two approaches, Monetary and traditional Keynesian, to international adjustment and balance of payments.

Booknews

Business and economic scholars analyze in detail the two major approaches to international balance-of-payments adjustment, the traditional one called Keynesian and developed early in the 20th century, and the Monetary developed in the 1970s but which is claimed by its adherents to have been around since the time of David Hume. They review them theoretically and empirically, look at critiques, compare them theoretically and empirically, and survey the theoretical literature and empirical evidence on determining exchange rates.
