Abstract

THE FIRST SECTION OF THIS PAPER surveys the main developments that have taken place in the international monetary system since the early 1970s. The abandonment of fixed exchange rates and the partial privatization of the creation of international liquidity represent a clear shift to the market and a negation of the postwar idea of a collectively managed system with tight official control over financial markets.
