The International Monetary Fund and World Bank were founded at the 1944 Bretton Woods conference on the premise that international cooperation and multilateralism would be to the benefit and enrichment of all. Yet, the establishment and evolution of the global financial architecture into its current form were not inevitable: this edited volume examines the “roads not taken” – critical junctures in the histories of the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank – where the choices made, and the decisions taken, would have far-reaching consequences.Geoeconomic fragmentation, nationalism, and extreme protectionism pose threats to the open trade and payments system and are jeopardizing the hard-won gains in global incomes and living standards driven by postwar trade and globalization. Against the urgent need to rekindle the Bretton Woods spirit of cooperation and multilateralism, while also reckoning with the shortcomings of the postwar international order as they were revealed over time, the authors of this volume turn to history for inspiration, lessons, and insights from both the roads taken and those left for another day. The book also demonstrates that future reform can be inspired by previous intellectual and theoretical efforts.The book will be of great interest to readers interested in the past, present, and future of international monetary systems, economic governance, and international finance and banking more broadly.

With the current architecture of global monetary institutions and governance reaching a crisis point, this book engages with the scholarly and policy debates that have emerged around alternative devices and structures for the management of the international economy.The key question underpinning this edited volume is whether adjustments to the current global economic governance are enough or whether major reform is necessary, and in which direction, to avoid a crash of the system itself. Each contributor explores a specific area for possible adjustment or reform addressing key questions, including: What is the future of the international economic and monetary system? What reforms are to be prioritized to steer the global economy through the challenges of the next decades? What are the necessary steps to be taken during the transition? How can theoretical and policy issues concerning the foundation of a more efficient, multi- layered system of governance be resolved?The book will be of great interest to readers in international monetary systems, economic governance, and international finance and banking more broadly.

2024 marks the 80th anniversary of the Bretton Woods conference, where the foundations of a new international economic and monetary order were laid down. After the end of the fixed exchange-rates regime between 1971 and 1973, the US dollar hegemony was strengthened while the international system was dominated by increasing global imbalances and greater vulnerability of the world economy.This was mainly due to the built-in destabilizer that characterizes each international monetary system relying on a national currency to provide global liquidity: the essence of the Triffin dilemma.Since the Great Financial Crisis an attempt was made towards a more equitable, multilateral economic governance system. But the last few years have also brought more fragmentation, shortening of global value chains and attempts to fence off negative transnational externalities deriving from various sources of interdependence (even with autarchic and neocolonial responses). Worse yet the pandemic and military conflicts reinforced the logic of blocks while the need for increased supranational public goods or reduced negative public bads is becoming pressing.This book suggests that a way to recover a path towards multilateralism is strengthened regional integration. This may help return on a path of trans-national confidence and cooperation and implement a new multilayered architecture of the international monetary system. "This book is an indispensable reading at a time when one of the essential tasks of the international community is to move towards a new monetary order and a reform of the International monetary fund (IMF) associating the new regional monetary unions to the management of a common currency: the Special Drawing Right (SDR)."Michel Camdessus, Former Managing Director, IMF; Honorary Governor, Bank of France
