Then, as now, it has been argued, the United States ran balance of payment deficits, provided international reserves to other countries, and acted as export market of last resort for the rest of the world. Then, as now, the story continues, other countries were reluctant to revalue their currencies for fear of seeing their export-led growth slow and suffering capital losses on their foreign reserves. Eichengreen argues in response that the power of historical analogy lies not just in finding parallels but in highlighting differences, and indeed he finds important differences in the structure of the world economy today."--BOOK JACKET.  aAlso available in electronic form. 0aInternational finance. 0aCairoli lecture series.  2ddccBK  c65507d65507  00102ddc406332_042000000000000_EIG708NFIC9111323aDULbDULcGENd2012-11-14ePurchasedo332.042 EIGp476086r2016-05-16w2016-05-16yBK
