Special attention is paid to integrating IMF history with the macro-economic policies of member countries and of other international institutions as well. This collection of work presents a clear understanding, inter alia, of the influence of the United States over IMF policy via the National Advisory Committee; the dealings of the IMF with the UK on pound sterling policy; the institutional change of the IMF brought about by Per Jacobsson, the third managing director; and France, Italy, Germany, Canada, and Japan vis-à-vis IMF consultations. It also provides the reader with topics concerning the bankers’ acceptance market function and international liquidity issues in relation to IMF policy; the final chapter sheds light on the long-standing relations between the IMF and China, from the Bretton Woods Agreement to the contemporary period. All the chapters are archive-based academic studies providing deep insights with historical background, which makes this book the first thoroughly independent achievement in the field of IMF history. This book is highly recommended to readers interested in contemporary monetary and financial history and those who seek to obtain a coherent image of postwar international institutions and markets.Studies in Economic History,2364-1797Economic historyPublic financeFinanceInternational relationsPolitical economyEconomic Historyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W41000Public Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W34000Finance, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/600000International Relationshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912000International Political Economyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/912140History.fastEconomic history.Public finance.Finance.International relations.Political economy.Economic History.Public Economics.Finance, general.International Relations.International Political Economy.332.152Yago Kazuhikoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtAsai Yoshioedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtItoh Masanaoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910298477503321History of the IMF2529310UNINA
