Our Dollar, your Problem
Die ganze Welt ist abhängig vom Dollar. Doch wird das auch so bleiben? Der führende Wirtschaftswissenschaftler Kenneth Rogoff untersucht den Aufstieg des US-Dollars zur Weltwährung und zeigt, warum seine Vormachtstellung alles andere als gesichert ist. Der ehemalige Chefökonom des Internationalen Währungsfonds stützt sich auf eigene Erfahrungen, unter anderem mit politischen Entscheidungsträgern und Staatsoberhäuptern, und beschreibt, wie der Dollar sich gegen den japanischen Yen, den sowjetischen Rubel und den Euro durchsetzte. Präzise analysiert er die aktuellen Herausforderungen, mit denen die Leitwährung konfrontiert ist: Kryptowährungen und der chinesische Yuan, zunehmende Inflation und höhere Zinssätze, politische Instabilität und das Auseinanderbrechen des Dollarblocks. Das Ende der Dollar-Ära könnte bereits eingeläutet sein, nicht nur, weil viele Länder von dem System zutiefst frustriert sind, sondern auch, weil Selbstüberschätzung und Arroganz zu Fehlern führen. Rogoff zeigt, wie Amerikas übergroße Macht und exorbitante Privilegien finanzielle Instabilität nach sich ziehen - im eigenen Land und auf der ganzen Welt.

Our Dollar, Your Problem
A National Bestseller • Recommended by Financial Times as “What to Read in 2025” “The central argument of Our Dollar, Your Problem—that the greenback’s pre-eminence was never guaranteed and might plausibly be overturned—could hardly be more timely.”—The Economist A leading economist explores the global rise of the U.S. dollar and shows why its future stability is far from assured Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc. Americans cannot take for granted that the Pax Dollar era will last indefinitely, not only because many countries are deeply frustrated with the system, but also because overconfidence and arrogance can lead to unforced errors. Rogoff shows how America’s outsized power and exorbitant privilege can spur financial instability—not just abroad but also at home.

Progress and Confusion
Leading economists consider the shape of future economic policy: will it resume the pre-crisis consensus, or contend with the post-crisis "new normal”? What will economic policy look like once the global financial crisis is finally over? Will it resume the pre-crisis consensus, or will it be forced to contend with a post-crisis "new normal”? Have we made progress in addressing these issues, or does confusion remain? In April of 2015, the International Monetary Fund gathered leading economists, both academics and policymakers, to address the shape of future macroeconomic policy. This book is the result, with prominent figures—including Ben Bernanke, John Taylor, and Paul Volcker—offering essays that address topics that range from the measurement of systemic risk to foreign exchange intervention. The chapters address whether we have entered a "new normal” of low growth, negative real rates, and deflationary pressures, with contributors taking opposing views; whether new financial regulation has stemmed systemic risk; the effectiveness of macro prudential tools; monetary policy, the choice of inflation targets, and the responsibilities of central banks; fiscal policy, stimulus, and debt stabilization; the volatility of capital flows; and the international monetary and financial system, including the role of international policy coordination. In light of these discussions, is there progress or confusion regarding the future of macroeconomic policy? In the final chapter, volume editor Olivier Blanchard answers: both. Many lessons have been learned; but, as the chapters of the book reveal, there is no clear agreement on several key issues. ContributorsViral V. Acharya, Anat R.
