In this new volume from the National Bureau of Economic Research, leading economists use rigorous models to tackle various exchange rate issues, while also illuminating policy implications that emerge from their analyses. The volume, divided into four main sections, addresses: the role of exchange rates in stabilization programs and the adjustment process; the importance of exchange rate policy during liberalization reform in developing countries; exchange rate problems relevant and unique to developing countries, illustrated by case studies; and the problems defining, measuring, and identifying determinants of real exchange rates. Authors of individual papers examine the relation between commercial policies and exchange rates, the role of exchange rate policy in stabilization programs, the effectiveness of devaluations as a policy tool, and the interaction between exchange rate terms of trade an capital flow. This research will not only prove crucial to our understanding of the role of exchange rates in developing countries, but will clearly set the standard for future work in the field. 410 0$aConference report (National Bureau of Economic Research) 606 $aEconomic stabilization$zDeveloping countries$xEconometric models$vCongresses 606 $aForeign exchange administration$zDeveloping countries$xEconometric models$vCongresses 610 $aexchange rate, policy, stabilization programs, adjustment, liberalization, reform, developing countries, commercial policies, devaluation, capital flow, trade, nonfiction, economics, econometric models, open economy, supply shocks, wage indexation, welfare, banks, export, colombia, coffee, west africa, currency, price setters, greece, kenya, investment incentives, stagflation, finance. 615 0$aEconomic stabilization$xEconometric models 615 0$aForeign exchange administration$xEconometric models 676 $a332.4/5/091724 676 $a332.45091724 701 $aAhamed$b Liaquat$088758 701 $aEdwards$b Sebastian$f1953-$088759 712 02$aNational Bureau of Economic Research. 712 02$aWorld Bank. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815996603321 996 $aEconomic adjustment and exchange rates in developing countries$93932526 997 $aUNINA
