Toward a New International Financial Architecture: A Practical Post-Asia Agenda

Rating:
Summary: Another Triumph!
Review: Eichengreen clearly demonstrates a comprehensive understanding of the international financial structure. He provides conservative and realistic criticisms for the reformation of the IMF. The Institute for International Economics should be proud of his nonpartisan attempt to quantify economic and financial theory into reliable, real life circumstances. This publication, like many other publications by the institute, is overtly academic and may not represent the best option for readers with no formal backqround in economics or finance. It is perhaps most relevant for government and corporate policy makers, academics, and those with a serious interest in international finance.
