The Flight of International Capital : A Contemporary History, Hardback Book

The Flight of International Capital : A Contemporary History Hardback

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Financial Markets series

Hardback

Description

Originally published in 1987, The Flight of International Capital provides a fascinating comprehensive analysis of the history of international money movements.

Taking 1931 as the turning point between old-style and modern methods of conducting monetary affairs, the book relates currency shifts and investment trends to political events.

He deals with five eras in the history of international capital; the unsettled post-crash period 1931-1936; the flight of capital to the US before World War II; the dollar and Swiss Franc’s time as the only ‘hard monies’ till the late fifties; the emergence of the mark-dollar axis before 1971; and finally, the behaviour of floating currencies.
