BARRY HERMAN – GLOBAL FINANCIAL TURMOIL & REFORM

As Asia’s financial and economic crisis deepened and spread around the world, United Nations economists on five continents shared notes in order to understand the upheaval and suggest reforms at national and international levels.

The Secretary-General presented a set of recommendations to the General Assembly on ways to strengthen the capacity of developing and transitional economies to cope with international financial volatility and to reduce risks posed by the current international financial system. It resulted in a joint statement by UN economic and social affairs officials.

The results of these exercises, including revised and updated papers and summaries of July 1998 meetings at which economists and scholars discussed the crisis in terms of the behavior of direct investors and financial markets, are presented in this volume.

In the rapidly changing discussions of financial policy reform, ideas formerly outside of mainstream theory have gained a wider hearing. This dialogue is reflected in the book.
