Alors que les autorités monétaires s'inquiètent de signes annonciateurs d'un regain de l'inflation, il convient de rappeler les précédents comme la grande inflation de 1914-1923 en Allemagne, le cas le plus extrême à ce jour dans un pays industriel. Dans cet ouvrage, Carl-Ludwig Holtfrerich expose les formes prises par l'inflation en Allemagne : les différentes vitesses de l'augmentation des prix et de l'effondrement du taux de change. Il rappelle les causes et met en évidence les effets, non seulement négatifs, mais aussi positifs, sur la croissance du produit national, l'emploi et la conjoncture des économies étrangères. Il analyse précisément les effets de cette inflation sur la distribution des revenus et du patrimoine au plan national et international. Sur la base de sources nouvelles, aussi bien économiques que politiques et sociales, cet ouvrage présente l'histoire d'un bouleversement de la société dont les résonances et le souvenir retentissent encore aujourd'hui dans l'opinion et dans les choix de politique économique.

The exchange rate is the most important price in any economy, since it affects all other prices. Exchange rates are set, either directly or indirectly, by government policy. Exchange rates are also central to the global economy, for they profoundly influence all international economic activity. Despite the critical role of exchange rate policy, there are few definitive explanations of why governments choose the currency policies they do. Filled with in-depth cases and examples, Currency Politics presents a comprehensive analysis of the politics surrounding exchange rates.Identifying the motivations for currency policy preferences on the part of industries seeking to influence politicians, Jeffry Frieden shows how each industry's characteristics-including its exposure to currency risk and the price effects of exchange rate movements-determine those preferences. Frieden 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. He 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. With an ambitious mix of narrative and statistical investigation, Currency Politics clarifies the political and economic determinants of exchange rate policies.

Countries with an abundance of natural resources, many of which are in sub-Saharan Africa, often show a record of relatively poor economic performance compared with non-resource-rich countries. The chapters in this volume explore the potential challenges to countries with abundant natural resources and ways to manage these challenges so as to reap the benefits of resource wealth while avoiding the pitfalls. The book is divided into five sections, which explore commodity markets and the macroeconomy, economic diversification and the role of finance, fiscal policy, exchange rates and financial stability, and governance. The ideas in this book were first presented at a seminar in November 2010 that was aimed primarily at policymakers in sub-Saharan Africa and brought together ministers, central bank governors, other senior policymakers, and well-known academics.
