US: Oxford University Press, 2011. Hardcover. Very Good. For more than half a century, the U.S. dollar has been not just America's c urrency but the world's. It is used globally by importers, exporters, inves tors, governments and central banks alike. Nearly three-quarters of all $10 bills circulate outside the United States. The dollar holdings of the Chinese government alone come to more than $1,000 per Chinese resident. This dependence on dollars, by banks, corporations and governments around t he world, is a source of strength for the United States. It is, as a critic of U.S. policies once put it, America's "exorbitant privilege." However, r ecent events have raised concerns that this soon may be a privilege lost. Among these have been the effects of the financial crisis and the Great Rec ession: high unemployment, record federal deficits, and financial distress. In addition there is the rise of challengers like the euro and China's ren minbi. Some say that the dollar may soon cease to be the world's standard currency--which would depress American living standards and weaken the coun try's international influence. In Exorbitant Privilege, one of our foremost economists, Barry Eichengreen, traces the rise of the dollar to international prominence over the course of the 20th century. He shows how the greenback dominated internationally i n the second half of the century for the same reasons--and in the same way--that the United States dominated the global economy. But now, with the rise of China, India, Brazil and other emerging economies, America no longer towers over the global economy. It follows, Eichengreen argues, that the dollar will not be as dominant.
