International Economic Policies and Their Theoretical Foundations A Sourcebook

"Contains contributions by many internationally known economists, and the level of the texts selected is...to be commended.... The book has the virtue of providing a broad spectrum of viewpoints.... Creates a distinctly positive impression. It accomplishes its aim of demonstrating the basic principles of actual current international economic policies and is a valuable contribution for those seeking orientation in this extensive field." --INTERNATIONAL SOCIAL SCIENCE REVIEW The literature on international economics has become excessively specialized. In selecting distinguished readings for this source book Professor Letiche has broken the mold. The essays concentrate on the interrelation between theory and actual policy design. Included among the sixteen new articles are topics such as the restructuring of Western Europe, the shift from centrally planned to market economies, the new protectionism, contemporary exchange rate determination, and the new IMF and GATT procedures. This collection of classic pieces and recent economic contributions are a valued resource in universities and government offices.Litiche, John M. is the author of 'International Economic Policies and Their Theoretical Foundations A Sourcebook' with ISBN 9780124442818 and ISBN 0124442811.
