"Money, Capital and System Transformation" presents a selection of thought-provoking essays by the noted German economist Hajo Riese. Starting from the theoretical foundations of how a monetary economy works, Riese provides insights into major issues of economic development and economic transition. Riese's main conclusion is that strategies of economic development and economic transition will fail if the requirements of a monetary economy are not met.

The period of transition from socialism to capitalism in parts of Europe and Asia over the past 25 years has attracted considerable interest in academia and beyond. From the Editors of Palgrave's iconic series 'Studies in Economic Transition' comes the Palgrave Dictionary of Emerging Markets and Transition Economics.This dictionary addresses the needs of students, lecturers and the interested general public to quickly find definitions and explanations of topics, institutions, personalities and processes in this historical phase of changing societies, which as such is not concluded. Today newly emerging market economies try to learn from the experiences of transition economies.Those who love The New Palgrave Dictionary of Economics will enjoy the format of this Dictionary, which uses an encyclopaedia-based approach, where articles not only define the terms but provide an overview of the evolution of the term or theory and also touch on the current debates.

Globalization of capital markets has received new momentum and it will continue to be of major importance for the years to come. Partly, the increasing integration of financial markets and the rise of foreign direct investment is a consequence of world trade expansion. But in addition to this underlying trend, the worldwide collapse of socialist systems and the opening up of big economies like India and China have fuelled the development of globalized capital markets. This book takes stock of recent developments with emphasis on emerging capital markets.

This book provides a fully revised and up-to-date analysis of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). By focusing on monetary issues the book offers a better understanding of macroeconomic policies and international policy cooperation, and, by extension, provides a thorough economic assessment of the EMU as an institution as it stands today.

In Deutschland hat sich nach dem Zusammenbruch des Weltwährungssystems von Bretton Woods ein stabilitätspolitisches Regime etabliert, das dem Ziel der Geldwertstabilisierung Vorrang vor den anderen stabilitätspolitischen Zielen gibt. Dieses Lehrbuch untersucht die Implikationen einer Dominanz der Geldwertstabilisierung für alle Bereiche der Stabilitätspolitik. In die Untersuchung werden auch die stabilitätspolitischen Strategien einer künftigen Europäischen Währungsunion einbezogen. Im Anschluß an eine kurze Einführung in die methodischen und theoretischen Grundlagen der Stabilitätspolitik werden modellanalytische Schlußfolgerungen zur Stabilitätspolitik jeweils mit konkreten Problemlagen für komplexe Handlungssituationen konfrontiert.
