As the conventional narrative goes, the collapse of the gold standard and the rise of competitive devaluation sparked a monetary war that sundered the system, darkened the decade, and still serves as a warning to policymakers today. But this familiar tale is only half the story. With the Tripartite Agreement of 1936, Britain, America, and France united to end their monetary war and make peace. This agreement articulated a new vision, one in which the democracies promised to consult on exchange rate policy and uphold a liberal international system-at the very time fascist forces sought to destroy it. Max Harris explores this little-known but path-breaking and successful effort to revolutionize monetary relations, tracing the evolution of the monetary system in the twilight years before the Second World War and demonstrating that this history is not one solely of despair"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Foreign exchange rates $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Monetary policy $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a International finance $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a International economic relations $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Foreign exchange rates. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00931816 650 7 $a International economic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976891 650 7 $a International finance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00976945 650 7 $a Monetary policy $x International cooperation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01025242 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Harris, Max (Max Reuben). $t Monetary war and peace $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridgment University Press, 2021. $z 9781108754187 $w (DLC) 2021000909 830 0 $a Studies in macroeconomic history. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020014009.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EDE59646323411EC8B1165C359ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
