OVERVIEW OF SECTION IV: INTERNATIONAL MACROECONOMIC POLICYPart IV of the text is comprised of five chapters:Chapter 18 The International Monetary System, 1870-1973Chapter 19 Macroeconomic Policy and Coordination Under Floating Exchange Rates Chapter 20 Optimum Currency Areas and The European ExperienceChapter 21 The Global Capital Market: Performance and Policy ProblemsChapter 22 Developing Countries: Growth, Crisis, and ReformSECTION OVERVIEWThis final section of the book, which discusses international macroeconomic policy, provides historical and institutional background to complement the theoretical presentation of the previous section. These chapters also provide an opportunity for students to hone their analytic skills and intuition by applying and extending the models learned in Part III to a range of current and historical issues.The first two chapters of this section discuss various international monetary arrangements. These chapters describe the workings of different exchange rate systems through the central theme of internal and external balance. The model developed in the previous section provides a general framework for analysis of gold standard, reserve currency, managed floating, and floating exchange-rate systems.Chapter 18 chronicles the evolution of the international monetary system from the gold standard of 1870 - 1914, through the interwar years, and up to and including the post-war Bretton Woods period. The chapter discusses the price-specie-flow mechanism of adjustment in the context of the discussion of the gold standard. Conditions for internal and external balance are presented through diagrammatic analysis based upon the short-run macroeconomic model of Chapter 16. This analysis illustrates the strengths and weaknesses of alternative fixed exchange rate arrangements. The chapter also draws upon earlier discussion of balance of payments crises to make clear the interplay between "fundamental disequilibrium" and speculative attacks. There is a detailed analysis of the Bretton Woodssystem that includes a case study of the experience during its decline beginning in the mid-1960s and culminating with its collapse in 1973.Chapter 19 focuses on recent experience under floating exchange rates. The discussion is couched in terms of current debate concerning the advantages of floating versus fixed exchange rate systems. The theoretical arguments for and against floating exchange rates frame two case studies, the first on the experience between the two oil shocks in the 1970s and the second on the experience since 1980. The transmission of monetary and fiscal shocks from one country to another is also considered. Discussion of the experience in the 1980s points out the shift in policy toward greater coordination in the second half of the decade. Discussion of the 1990s focuses on the strong U.S. economy from 1992 on and the extended economic difficulties in Japan. Finally, the chapter considers what has been learned about floating rates since 1973. The appendix illustrates losses arising from uncoordinated international monetary policy using a game theory setup.Europe’s switch to a single currency, the euro, is the subject of Chapter 20, and provides a particular example of a single currency system. The chapter discusses the history of the European Monetary System and its precursors. The early years of the E.M.S. were marked by capital controls and frequent realignments. By the end of the 1980s, however, there was marked inflation convergence among E.M.S. members, few realignments and the removal of capital controls. Despite a speculative crisis in 1992-3, leaders pressed on with plans for the establishment of a single European currency as outlined in the Maastricht Treaty which created Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). The single currency was viewed as an important part of the EC 1992 initiative which called for the free flow within Europe of labor, capital, goods and services. The single currency, the euro, was launched on January 1, 1999 with eleven original participants. These countries have ceded monetary authority to a supranational central bank and constrained their fiscal policy with agreements on convergence criteria and the stability and growth pact. A single currency imposes costs as well as confers benefits. The theory of optimum currency areas suggests conditions which affect the relative benefits of a single currency. The chapter provides a way to frame this analysis using the GG-LL diagram which compares the gains and losses from a single currency. Finally, the chapter examines the prospects of the EU as an optimal currency area compared to the United States and considers the future challenges EMU will face.The international capital market is the subject of Chapter 21. This chapter draws an analogy between the gains from trade arising from international portfolio diversification andinternational goods trade. There is discussion of institutional structures that have arisen to exploit these gains. The chapter discusses the Eurocurrency market, the regulation of offshore banking, and the role of international financial supervisory cooperation. The chapter examines policy issues of financial markets, the policy trilemma of the incompatibility of fixed rates, independent monetary policy, and capital mobility as well as the tension between supporting financial stability and creating a moral hazard when a government intervenes in financial markets. The chapter also considers evidence of how well the international capital market has performed by focusing on issues such as the efficiency of the foreign exchange market and the existence of excess volatility of exchange rates.Chapter 22 discusses issues facing developing countries. The chapter begins by identifying characteristics of the economies of developing countries, characteristics that include undeveloped financial markets, pervasive government involvement, and a dependence on commodity exports. The macroeconomic analysis of previous chapters again provides a framework for analyzing relevant issues, such as inflation in or capital flows to developing countries. Borrowing by developing countries is discussed as an attempt to exploit gains from intertemporal trade and is put in historical perspective. Latin American countries’ problems with inflation and subsequent attempts at reform are detailed. Finally, the East Asian economic miracle is revisited (it is discussed in Chapter 10), and the East Asian financial crisis is examined. This final topic provides an opportunity to discuss possible reforms of the world’s financial architecture.。

Size Matters: The Gravity ModelThe size of an economy is directly related to the volume of imports and exports.Larger economies produce more goods and services, so they have more to sell in the export market. Larger economies generate more income from the goods and services sold, so people are able to buy more imports.3 of the top 10 trading partners with the US in 2003 were also the 3 largest European economies: Germany, UK and France. These countries have the largest gross domestic product (GDP) in Europe.Cultural affinity: if two countries have cultural ties, it is likely that they also have strong economic ties.Geography: ocean harbors and a lack of mountain barriers make transportation and tradeeasier.2. Distance Matters: The Gravity ModelDistance between markets influences transportation costs and therefore the cost of imports and exports. Distance may also influence personal contact and communication, which may influence trade.Estimates of the effect of distance from the gravity model predict that a 1% increase in the distance between countries isassociated with a decrease in the volume of trade of 0.7% to 1%.Borders: crossing borders involves formalities that take time and perhaps monetary costs like tariffs. These implicit and explicit costs reduce trade. The existence of borders may also indicate the existence of different languages or different currencies, either of which may impede trade more.3.The gravity modelThe gravity model is:a b c ij i j ijT A Y Y D =?? where a, b, and c are allowed to differ from 1.§2. The Changing Composition of Trade1. Has the World Become “Smaller ”?There were two waves of globalization.1840–1914: economies relied on steam power, railroads, telegraph, telephones. Globalization was interrupted and reversed by wars and depression.1945–present: economies rely on telephones, airplanes, computers, internet, fiber optics,…2. Changing Composition of TradeToday, most of the volume of trade is in manufactured products such as automobiles, computers, clothing and machinery. Services such as shipping, insurance, legal fees and spending by tourists account for 20% of the volume of trade.Mineral products (e.g., petroleum, coal, copper) and agricultural products are a relatively small part of trade.Multinational Corporations and OutsourcingBefore 1945, multinational corporations played a small role world trade.But today about one third of all US exports and 42% of all US imports are sales from one division of a multinational corporation to another.Chapter 3Labor Productivity and Comparative Advantage:The Ricardian Model*Countries engage in international trade for two basic reasons:·Comparative advantage: countries are different in technology (chapter 3) or resource (chapter 4).·Economics of scale (chapter 6).*All motives are at work in the real world but only one motive is present in each trade model.§1. The concept of comparative advantage1.

Chapter 10 focuses on the use of trade policy in developing countries and Chapter 11 focuses on new controversies in trade policy.While there is great diversity among the developing countries, they share some common policy concerns. These include the development of domestic manufacturing industries, the uneven degree of development within the country, and the desire to foster economic growth and improve livingstandards. This chapter discusses both the successful and unsuccessful trade policy strategies which have been applied by developing countries in attempts to address these concerns.Many developing countries pose the creation of a significant manufacturing sector as a key goal of economic development. One commonly voiced argument for protecting manufacturing industries is the infant industry argument, which states that developing countries have a potential comparative advantage in manufacturing and can realize that potential through an initial period of protection. This argument assumes market failure in the form of imperfect capital markets or the existence of externalities in production: such a market failure makes the social return to production higher than the private return. This implies that a firm will not be able to recapture rents or profits that are in line with the contribution to welfare made by the product or industry establishment of the firm. Without some government support, the argument goes, the amount of investment which will occur in this industry will be less than socially optimal levels.Given these arguments, many nations have attempted import substitution led industrialization. In the 1950s and 1960s the strategy was quite popular and did lead to a dramatic reduction in imports in some countries. The overall result, though, was not a success. The infant industry argument did not always hold, as protection could let young industries survive, but could not make them efficient. By the late 1980s, most countries had shifted away from the strategy, and the chapter includes a case study of Chile’s change from import substitution to a more open strategy.Development often proceeds unevenly and results in a dual economy consisting of a modern sector and a traditional sector. The modern sector typically differs from the traditional sector in that it has a higher value of output per worker, higher wages, higher capital intensity, lower returns to capital, and persistent unemployment. For example, in India less than one percent of the population is employed in the manufacturing sector but this sector produces 15 percent of GNP. Wages in Indian manufacturing are six times those in agriculture.Some argue that the existence of wage differentials in a dual economy demonstrate the failure of labor markets to work well. Society would benefit if workers moved from agriculture to manufacturing. A first best policy addresses the wage differential directly. Protectionism may be a second best solution, but one with the undesirable consequences of inducing both capital and labor into manufacturing. This raises the already too high capital intensity in the manufacturing sector. Further, an increase in the number of urban manufacturing jobs may exacerbate the problems of urban unemployment through migration from the countryside to the cities. This is a key theme of theHarris-Todaro model. Thus, it is possible that the medicine of trade policies worsens the illness of dualism.The East Asian “miracle” of the high-performing Asian economies (HPAEs) provides a striking and controversial example of export-oriented industrialization. While these countries encountered difficulties in the late 1990s (see Chapter 22), this chapter focuses on their spectacular growth from the 1960s to 1990s. It is acknowledged that the growth was extremely impressive; the controversy is over the source of the success in these countries. Some observers argue that although these countries do not practice free trade, they have lower rates of protection (and more outward orientation) than other developing countries. Other observers argue that the interventionist industrial policies pursued by the HPAEs have been the reason for success, and outward orientation is just a by-product of active rather than passive government involvement in industry. Still others argue that high rates of domestic savings and rapid improvements in education are behind the stunning growth performance.ANSWERS TO TEXTBOOK PROBLEMS1. The Japanese example gives pause to those who believe that protectionism is alwaysdisastrous. However, the fact of Japanese success does not demonstrate that protectionist trade policy was responsible for that success. Japan was an exceptional society that had emerged into the ranks of advanced nations before World War II, and was recovering from wartime devastation. It is arguable that economic success would have come anyway, so that the apparent success of protection represents a "pseudo-infant-industry" case of the kind discussed in the text.2. a. The initial high costs of production would justify infant industry protection if the costs to thesociety during the period of protection were less than the future stream of benefits from a mature, low cost industry.b. An individual firm does not have an incentive to bear development costs itself for an entireindustry when these benefits will accrue to other firms. There is a stronger case for infant industry protection in this instance because of the existence of market failure in the form of the appropriability of technology.3. There are larger markets in larger countries like Brazil and industries which benefit fromimport substituting policies could realize economy of scale advantages there which would not be available to industries producing solely for the market of Ghana.4. The value of the marginal product of labor in the production of food is 9 x $10 = $90.a. The wage will be equated in each sector when there are no distortions. This occurs whenthere are 8 workers in manufacturing and 12 in food production. The wage of all workers will be $90. The output of each sector can be found by calculating the area under the marginal product of labor curves. This curve is a horizontal line for food, so output in this sector is 12 x 9 = 108. Summing the area under the MPL curve for manufacturing up to 8 workers results in output of 110.b. Manufacturing output shrinks to 3 workers, and there are 17 workers in the food sector.Food output now equals 153 while manufacturing output equals 54. The cost of the distortion equals the value of output lost, which is $110.c. The probability of being employed is 1 - (n+3/n) = 3/n where n is the number of city workers.Workers will migrate to the city until the wage times the probability of being employed equals the wage offered in the rural area with certainty. There will be 5 workers in manufacturing,15 workers in agriculture, and 2 unemployed workers. The output of the manufacturingsector is 54 and for food is 135.5. Under these circumstances, workers are both "pulled" into the urban, "modern" sector by thelure of high wages and "pushed" from the rural areas due to stagnant conditions in the agricultural sector. To correct this problem of the bias toward the urban-manufacturing sector, explicit attention should be paid to making the agricultural sector more rewarding, In order to retain labor, the agricultural sector might be provided with wage subsidies so that the rural-urban wage gap is reduced. Policies can also be targeted at promoting light rural enterprise and agricultural investment which would increase wages through increasing worker productivity. In addition, development of the rural infrastructure and social services might increase the relative attractiveness of the countryside.6. Import quotas on capital-intensive goods and subsidies for the import of capital equipmentfoster the development of a capital intensive sector, and thus of a dual economy. If the capital-intensive sector pays high wages relative to the traditional sector, the result may be rural-urban migration and the emergence of persistent urban unemployment.FURTHER READINGSJagdish Bhagwati, ed..
