Gold, Dollars, and Power: The Politics of International Monetary Relations, 1958-1971 - The New Cold War History New edition
Francis J. Gavin
Offers a reassessment of the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates and dollar-gold convertibility. This book demonstrates that, contrary to the conventional wisdom, Bretton Woods was a highly politicized system that was prone to crisis and required constant intervention and controls to continue functioning.
