This book explores their evolution since World War II in 20 industrial countries. The study considers the mix of economic, political and institutional forces that have affected central bank behaviour and its relationship with government. The analysis reconciles vastly different views about the role of central banks in the making of economic policies. One finding is that monetary policy is an evolutionary process. 410 0$aStudies in macroeconomic history. 606 $aBanks and banking, Central$xHistory 606 $aMonetary policy$xHistory 615 0$aBanks and banking, Central$xHistory. 615 0$aMonetary policy$xHistory. 676 $a332.1/1 700 $aSiklos$b Pierre L.$f1955-$01052420 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450525503321 996 $aThe changing face of central banking$92483691 997 $aUNINA
