The studies collected in this volume embody the results of research
conducted in the mid 1950s into various theoretical problems in
international economics. They fall into three groups - comparative
cost theory, trade and growth and balance of payments theory. This
volume consolidates the work of previous theorists and applies
mathematically-based logical analysis to theoretical problems of
economic policy.
Reprinting the second edition (which included a new introduction
explaining developments which had emerged since first publication)
this book discusses explorations in the fundamental theory of a
monetary economy, a theoretical critique of the 'Phillips Curve'
approach to the theory of inflation and the theory of the term
structure of interest rates in terms of the theory of forward
markets pioneered by David Meiselman.
An internationally acknowledged authority on all aspects of the
theory of international trade and payments, this book collects
Harry Johnson's contributions to the study of international trade,
including a critique of the theory of effective protection. The
book discusses: the integration of income distribution and other
aspects of the economy into the positive theory of tariffs the
issues raised by the use of tariffs to promote economic development
the implications of distortions of various kinds in the working of
competition for tariff theory and policy the costs of protection
the implications of effective protection for world economic
development and the economic effects of trade preferences the
question of free trade and the extent to which it requires the
harmonization other aspects of economic policy.
This volume consists of selected previously published key essays
which have proved most useful for teaching advanced monetary
economics. A short introduction was added which places the
selection of essays and the issues they cover in the
contemporaneous context of simultaneous high inflation and high
unemployment. As relevant today as they were when they were first
written, they enable the reader to anticipate intelligently what is
likely to happen and why.
A sequel to Essays in Monetary Economics, this book develops the
ideas on domestic and international monetary issues, with reference
to specific events and crises of the 1960s and 70s. These essays
are distinguished by the author's expert grasp of the analytical
techniques and contemporaneous policy problems of both domestic and
international monetary economics.
This book collects together the basic documents of an approach to
the theory and policy of the balance of payments developed in the
1970s. The approach marked a return to the historical traditions of
international monetary theory after some thirty years of departure
from them - a departure occasioned by the international collapse of
the 1930s, the Keynesian Revolution and a long period of war and
post-war reconstruction in which the international monetary system
was fragmented by exchange controls, currency inconvertibility and
controls over international trade and capital movements.
This book deals with the effects of international trade on economic
growth and money. It also re-examines Keynesian theory and analyzes
economic growth in an affluent society in terms of planning,
economic and social policy.
Gathering together the papers presented at the Madrid Conference on
Optimum Currency Areas in 1970 this volume represents one of the
first complete surveys of the theory and policy implication of
monetary integration. The book discusses: the economics of fixed
exchange rates relevant to monetary relations within an integrated
monetary area the evolution of economic doctrine and a survey of
optimum currency area theory problems of policy co-ordination
within a currency area relevance of the monetary-fiscal policy mix
problems of monetary union in developing countries the book
predicted the establishment of an European currency but presented
the case for greater flexibility of exchange rates as an
alternative to currency unification.
The studies in this book deal with the determination of foreign
exchange rates and the characteristics of the foreign exchange
market. Analysis is made of flexible exchange rates through an
approach developed by the authors, called the 'asset-market
approach'. Theory is combined with practical application in a clear
concise way that will be understood by readers with a basic
understanding of economics.
