Köp båda 2 för 550 krA deeply thoughtful, nuanced, and erudite analysis of one of the 20th century's most profound and principled monetary thinkers. With the renewed global angst over the sustainability of the dollar-based international monetary system, Chivvis's masterful study of Jacques Rueff could not be more timely. -- Benn Steil, Senior Fellow and Director of International Economics, Council on Foreign Relations, and co-author of <i>Money, Markets, and Sovereignty</i> Mr. Chivvis has written an interesting and clear account of the major elements in the thought of the French economist and civil servant Jacques Rueff. -- Harold James, Princeton University An interesting, highly readable account of the career of one of Europe's most important economists. Chivvis lifts the smokescreen of simplicity which has served to obscure the economist's true contribution to twentieth century economic thought and practice. This is the clearest history (in my view) of twentieth century French monetary policy. Nothing else compares. -- Timothy Smith, Queen's University <i>The Daily Herald</i>
Christopher S. Chivvis is a political scientist with the RAND Corporation and teaches International History at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies.
