This paperback edition consists of the first three parts of Allen
and Kenen's major book, Asset Markets, Exchange Rates, and Economic
Integration. These three parts stand alone, as the authors intended
and as reviewers have commented. In parts four and five of that
volume they extend their model to two countries trading with the
outside world and analyze questions of economic integration. The
authors synthesize and extend recent developments in international
monetary theory using a general model of an open economy that
trades goods and assets with the outside world. The model embodies
the asset market or portfolio approach to analyzing
balance-of-payments adjustment. Exchange rates are determined in
the short run by conditions in the asset markets and in the long
run by conditions in the goods markets. The goods markets include
an export good, and import good, and a nontradeable good. Allen and
Kenen show that different assumptions about the substitutability
between goods or between assets can generate several popular models
as special cases of their own.
