Author: David M. AndrewsPublisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 9780801440199
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
The effective governance of global money and finance is under enormous stress. Deep changes over the last decade in capital markets, exchange rate systems, and government finances suggest dramatic shifts in the contours of monetary power, with tensions rising between the functional logic of international economics and the geographic logic of state-centered politics. Governing the World's Money assesses those tensions and the prospects for their peaceful resolution. Governing the World's Money surveys the frontiers of the global monetary system in ten original essays. Leading scholars of international relations and economics explore the evolution of the instruments available to policy officials for monetary governance. As they analyze the contemporary reordering of political authority in a market-oriented global economy, they open new pathways for the study of regional monetary integration and international institutional reform.

Changing Institutions in the European Union
Author: Giuseppe EusepiPublisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1845420586
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This book makes a valuable, analytical contribution to recent debates on the ongoing institutional changes occurring within the European Union. It provides a comprehensive and diverse insight into a variety of areas, including in-depth studies of fiscal, monetary and voting issues, to help elucidate the current period of transitional change. The authors argue that a fiscal constitution is essential to help solve the deficits and debts that member countries face due to welfare state financing. Moreover, they believe that the successful implementation of a fiscal constitution is the key to a more coherent institutional setting for Europe as a whole. Although monetary institutions within the EU have already secured a degree of constitutional solution in the form of the euro, they warn that its stabilising power should not be overestimated: the European Central Bank has yet to experience financial crises like those faced by the Federal Reserve Bank. The authors move on to propose a new parliamentary design for Europe and assess the advantages for the elite of a small country to join the EU, compared to the population at large. This volume comprehensively explores the rapidly changing institutional configuration of the EU, employing both qualitative and quantitative approaches. It will be required reading for scholars of public choice, and those with an interest in political economy and EU integration. It is also an excellent sourcebook on European institutions and would provide useful complementary reading in a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
EMU and the Cost of Capital
Author: Great Britain. TreasuryPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 80
Book Description
This publication is part of a set of 18 documents which have been prepared by H.M. Treasury to inform the assessment of the Government's five economic tests for Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) entry into the euro area. The third of the tests relates to whether joining the single currency would create better conditions for firms making long term investment decisions in the UK. To inform this assessment, this study considers the potential impact of EMU on the cost of capital for UK firms, an important aspect of a company's decision whether to invest or not. Overall, the study finds little scope for UK credit risk-free rates to fall significantly were the UK to enter the euro zone.
