The Dollar and the Euro as International Currencies

The strength of the currencies

An award-winning economic journalist on why the US dollar is positioned to maintain global primacy—and what that means for America and the world &nbsp; “Magisterial.”—Edward Chancellor, Reuters &nbsp; Prophecies that the dollar will lose its status as the world’s dominant currency have echoed for decades—and are increasing in volume. Cryptocurrency enthusiasts claim that Bitcoin or other blockchain-based monetary units will replace the dollar. Foreign policy hawks warn that China’s renminbi poses a lethal threat to the greenback. And sound money zealots predict that mounting US debt and inflation will surely erode the dollar’s value to the point of irrelevancy. &nbsp; Contra the doomsayers, Paul Blustein shows that the dollar’s standing atop the world’s currency pyramid is impregnable, barring catastrophic policy missteps by the US government. Recounting how the United States has wielded the dollar to impose devastating sanctions against adversaries, Blustein explains that although targets such as Russia have found ways to limit the damage, Washington’s financial weaponry will retain potency long into the future. His message, however, is that America must not be complacent about the dollar; the great power that its supremacy confers comes with commensurate responsibility.

The Past and Future of the World's Dominant Currency

King Dollar

Phenomenal World Books

A revelatory history of how the Federal Reserve finances American power. Central banks, we are told, are economic superpowers that must remain independent of modern democratic governments. The US Federal Reserve's presumed insulation from politics affords it autonomy and credibility to control inflation and promote economic stability--or so the story goes. In The Fiscal Fed, Will Bateman offers a deeply sourced, empirical history that shows the Fed's primary function is actually, and has always been, fiscal--sustaining the market for Treasury borrowing that makes up the difference between federal spending and federal revenue. Bateman combs Fed meeting transcripts, staff notes, financial accounts, and legal documents to trace loans and public-debt purchases since the central bank's founding. The result is a milestone work that reveals how, for most of the Fed's history, its transactions were aimed at government financing--either by providing cheap credit to close budget gaps or by manipulating yields on government debt. The Fed's support for government finance is a feature, not a bug, of American economic institutions.

Paper Money Explained: Definition, History, and Examples

A 2,500-year history of international currencies that reveals new insights about the future of the U.S. dollar—as well as crypto and central bank digital currencies Doubts about the international dominance of the dollar are only growing amid worries about tariffs, political dysfunction, and fraying international alliances. Will the dollar continue to reign supreme? In Money Beyond Borders, the leading authority on international currencies, Barry Eichengreen, puts the dollar’s prospects in deep historical perspective by chronicling the entire history of cross-border currencies, from the invention of coins in the seventh century BCE to the cryptocurrencies of today and the central bank digital currencies of tomorrow. Money Beyond Borders recounts how Greek and Roman coins became the first true international currencies. It tells how the Florentine gold florin became the “greenback of the Renaissance,” and how it was succeeded by Spanish silver and a Dutch fiat currency. The book explains why the British pound dominated the international economy in the nineteenth century, why the dollar rose to the top during World War II, and why the dollar has survived predictions of the imminent loss of its preeminence since the 1970s. The long history of international currencies shows that the same factors that encourage their widespread use eventually lead to their abandonment. Money Beyond Borders makes a powerful case that the dollar is now on the downside of this cycle, and it considers who the winners and losers will be when there is flight away from the greenback. Revealing important patterns in the life cycles of international currencies over the past 2,500 years, the book offers valuable lessons and insights about how currencies rise—and why they fall.

WAS IST WAS Geld. Von der Spardose in die Zukunft

Acclaimed economist James K. Galbraith sounds an urgent alarm: how conventional economic ideas and policies are unequipped to account for the most daunting challenges of our geopolitical moment.Amid a mounting sense of American decline, Americans live with a new kind of dissonance: economists announcing that everything is fundamentally fine. Where growth is steady, unemployment is low, prices are (somewhat) stable, and stocks are high--what's there to worry about? The Power to Destroy shows that this dissonance reflects a failure to evolve. James K. Galbraith's incisive history of economic policy in this century is grounded in the fundamental problem that today's experts are still deploying tools from all yesterday's wars: obsolete economic ideas, measures, and doctrines focused on market functioning and crude economic indicators like output and prices. These methods, many of them honed a century ago against a vastly different social landscape, offer little hope in the face of today's more existential threats. Such conventional policies, Galbraith argues, are increasingly ill-equipped to counter the daunting challenges of our moment--from inflation to trade sanctions, industrial cold wars, and climate change--and, left unacknowledged, are accelerating the end of the US economy as we know it. Shortcomings include the weak responses to the inflation of 2021-2022; the sanctions war against Russia; the rise of China; the weak and ineffective attempt at industrial revival; and the impending demographic crisis. All have roots in a flawed body of outdated economic thought that has been sustained for ideological rather than practical reasons. They now promise to hinder the United States in the emerging multipolar world. As Galbraith makes plain, for all the virtues of the market system, governments and their policies make markets possible. The ideas behind the policies--for better or worse--will determine the fate of the US economy--and new and better ideas are urgently needed. The alternative--sticking with economic ideas and policies we know and currently use--brings the power to destroy us all.

Even before its launch, economists questioned whether the Euro Area had what it takes to become an optimal currency area. The onset of the crisis in 2010 confirmed challenges in its construction that many had partly predicted. But has the Euro Area changed over time, and what key drivers are necessary to strengthen it in the future? 

This is the third of three volumes that use optimal currency area theory and applied econometric techniques to provide a compact analysis of the Euro Area, its evolution and future perspectives. This volume is dedicated to a criterion often seen as critical for an optimal currency area: a risk-sharing mechanism. Did the Euro Area’s stabilization mechanisms work as intended? In this timely book, the authors discuss the extent to which the Euro Area has developed fiscal transfers, insurance schemes, and financial markets that allow its members to share macroeconomic risks and smooth asymmetric shocks. The book is of interest to a wide range of researchers in financial economics, macroeconomics and economic policy.

Risk Sharing and Fiscal Federalism

Optimal Currency Areas and the Euro, Volume III

L'euro n'est pas une monnaie spontanée mais l'aboutissement d'un rapport de forces nationales découlant de la réunification allemande. Si les premières années de cette monnaie, introduite en 1999, furent baignées dans un contexte économique favorable, la crise bancaire de 2008 et la banqueroute grecque en dévoilèrent les failles. L'euro n'est plus porté par un élan politique commun parce que la différence de croissance entre les pays européens s'accroît et que la prospérité n'est plus partagée. L'euro n'a pas apporté suffisamment d'intégration politique et de croissance. Cette monnaie pourrait susciter son propre sabordage si sa gestion n'est pas repensée dans le sens d'une plus grande solidarité financière et d'une compréhension socio-politique accrue des différents États-membres. Plus que jamais, la perpétuation de l'euro repose sur le fragile équilibre de l'axe franco-allemand. Sans sursaut moral et une action politique décisive, un fait politique pourrait conduire à une sécession monétaire ou, pire, déclarer un véritable schisme qui mettrait fin à une des plus stupéfiantes expériences de l'histoire des monnaies. Ce livre, dont le Président Van Rompuy, a commis la contre-préface, transporte un avertissement et un espoir.&nbsp;

Frankreich Jahrbuch 2025

A provocative case for why immortalizing Greek and Roman culture as "classical" marginalizes and devalues Black lifeGreek and Roman antiquity has been enshrined in disciplines and curricula at all levels of education, perpetuating what the historian of political thought J.G.A. Pocock has called "a conceptual dictatorship on the rest of the planet." Classicism and Other Phobias shows how the concept of "classicism" lacks the capacity to affirm the aesthetic value of Black life and asks whether a different kind of classicism-one of insurgence, fugitivity, and emancipation-is possible. Engaging with the work of Sylvia Wynter and other trailblazers in Black studies while drawing on his own experiences as a Black classicist, Dan-el Padilla Peralta situates the history of the classics in the racial and settler-colonialist settings of early modern and modern Europe and North America. He argues that immortalizing ancient Greek and Roman authors as "the classical" comes at the cost of devaluing Black forms of expression. Is a newfound emphasis on Black classicism the most effective counter to this phobia? In search of answers, Padilla Peralta ranges from the poetry of Juan de Castellanos to the writings of W.E.B. Du Bois and paintings by contemporary artists Kehinde Wiley and Harmonia Rosales. Based on the prestigious W.E.B. Du Bois Lectures delivered at Harvard University, Classicism and Other Phobias draws necessary attention to the inability of the classics as a field of study to fully cope with Blackness and Black people.
