A
comprehensive
analysis
of
the
politics
surrounding
exchange
rate
policies
in
the
global
economy—with
in-depth
case
studies.The
exchange
rate
is
the
most
important
price
in
any
nation’s
economy,
and
a
central
factor
in
the
global
economy.
Despite
the
critical
role
of
exchange
rate
policy,
there
are
few
definitive
explanations
of
why
governments
choose
the
currency
policies
they
do.
In
Currency
Politics,
Jeffrey
Frieden
combines
narrative
and
statistical
investigation
to
offer
an
enlightening
analysis
of
exchange
rate
policies
around
the
world.Many
industries
seek
to
influence
politicians
on
currency
policy.
Frieden
shows
how
each
industry’s
characteristics—including
its
exposure
to
currency
risk
and
the
price
effects
of
exchange
rate
movements—determine
their
policy
preferences.
Frieden
then
evaluates
the
accuracy
of
his
theoretical
arguments
in
a
variety
of
historical
and
geographical
settings.
He
looks
at
the
politics
of
the
gold
standard,
particularly
in
the
United
States,
and
he
examines
the
political
economy
of
European
monetary
integration.Frieden
also
analyzes
the
politics
of
Latin
American
currency
policy
over
the
past
forty
years,
and
focuses
on
the
daunting
currency
crises
that
have
frequently
debilitated
Latin
American
nations,
including
Mexico,
Argentina,
and Brazil.
