Power and imbalances in the global monetary system: a comparative capitalism perspective

(2014)

Abstract
Over the past few years the global monetary system was destabilised by the eruption of the global financial crisis and the Eurozone debt crisis. In this book Mattias Vermeiren examines the indirect macroeconomic causes of these crises: the escalation of global trade imbalances between the US and China and regional trade imbalances in the Eurozone. Drawing on the insights of the International Political Economy literature on international monetary power and the Comparative Political Economy literature on comparative capitalisms, he shows that understanding the sources and dynamics of these imbalances requires an analytical focus on the distribution of international monetary power between the US, the Eurozone countries and China and the domestic institutions of their distinctive national models of capitalism. The book demonstrates the heuristic value of combining these two strands of literature, providing novel insights into the sources and dynamics of power and instability in the contemporary global monetary system
