Benjamin J. Cohen has been one of the most original and influential
writers on international political economy. This book provides an
overview of his contribution to the field, grouped around the
central theme of global monetary governance. The book is divided
into three sections: challenges to systemic governance - examines
the challenge of governance of the international monetary system
looking at such crucial issues as monetary reform, the growth of
capital markets and financial globalization dealing with financial
crisis - looks at efforts to deal effectively with financial
crises, analyzing the relationships between governments and banks
in the management of international debt problems and the case for
capital controls. There are case studies of the Asian financial
crisis and several other key instances of instability in world
markets the new geography of money - analyzes the crisis of
legitimacy created by a global system where governing authority is
exercised now more by market forces than by sovereign states. It
explores the geopolitical implications of the competition between
the two most widely used currencies in the world today, the US
dollar and the Euro and spells out the main implications for policy
makers. The concluding chapters evaluate the merits and prospects
for the two most widely discussed policy alternatives available to
governments responsible for the world's many less competitive
currencies - dollarization or monetary union.
