About this title

Synopsis

Economic Cooperation in an Uncertain World examines the case of international policy coordination in the face of macroeconomic uncertainties. It begins by developing a theoretical framework for analyzing the benefits of coordination when there is uncertainty about the effects of macroeconomic policies. As an illustration, this framework is applied to analyze the efforts of the central banks of the major industrialized countries to deal with the global stock market crash of October 1987.
