It can also serve as a reference text for applied researchers and policy professionals.

It then systematically examines different aspects of reforming these systems. It covers the...

Papers in this volume--the proceedings of a CEPR joint conference with the Bank of Israel and Tel Aviv University's Pinhas Sapir Center for Development--examine the implications of these developments for economic fluctuations and fiscal and monetary policies under alternative exchange rate...
