Exorbitant Privilege: The Rise and Fall of the Dollar
Eichengreen, Barry (Professor of Political Science and Economics, University of California, Berkeley)
Since the Second World War, the US dollar has been the world's sole international reserve currency, giving it, in the words of one critic, 'exorbitant privilege'. But in the wake of the worldwide financial crisis, will other currencies overtake it? And what impact would that have? Eichengreen explains the history and assesses what may come.
