Our Dollar, Your Problem: An Insider's View of Seven Turbulent Decades of Global Finance, and the Road Ahead de Kenneth Rogoff

Our Dollar, Your Problem: An Insider's View of Seven Turbulent Decades of Global Finance, and the Road Ahead

Autor Kenneth Rogoff
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 mai 2025

Demontăm astăzi mitul conform căruia hegemonia dolarului american este un dat natural și imuabil al economiei globale. În Our Dollar, Your Problem, Kenneth Rogoff demonstrează autoritar că poziția „biletului verde” nu este doar rezultatul unei strategii impecabile, ci și al unei doze considerabile de noroc istoric. Găsim în această carte o analiză lucidă a modului în care dolarul a depășit yenul, rubla și euro în ultimele șapte decenii, dar și un avertisment sever: această eră a „Pax Dollar” se apropie de un punct critic de inflexiune. Putem afirma că rigoarea academică a lui Rogoff, profesor la Harvard, este dublată aici de o perspectivă rară de insider, oferind detalii din culisele întâlnirilor cu lideri mondiali care au modelat sistemul monetar actual. Cititorul care a aplicat ideile din Exorbitant Privilege de Barry Eichengreen va găsi aici continuarea necesară, trecând de la înțelegerea avantajelor istorice la analiza riscurilor contemporane generate de fragmentarea geopolitică și ascensiunea yuanului. În contextul operei sale anterioare, dacă în Sovereign Debt autorul explora mecanismele crizelor de stat, în lucrarea de față el extinde cadrul, arătând cum însuși pilonul central al stabilității — dolarul — poate deveni sursa unei instabilități sistemice. Spre deosebire de abordările pur teoretice din Handbook of International Economics, acest volum adoptă un ton accesibil, dar ferm, despre provocările venite din zona activelor digitale și a inflației persistente. Este o lectură despre vulnerabilitatea puterii și despre modul în care aroganța politică poate duce la erori economice fundamentale.

Descriere scurtă

A National Bestseller • Recommended by Financial Times as “What to Read in 2025”
 
“The central argument of Our Dollar, Your Problem—that the greenback’s pre-eminence was never guaranteed and might plausibly be overturned—could hardly be more timely.”—The Economist
 
A leading economist explores the global rise of the U.S. dollar and shows why its future stability is far from assured
 
Our Dollar, Your Problem argues that America’s currency might not have reached today’s lofty pinnacle without a certain amount of good luck. Drawing in part on his own experiences, including with policymakers and world leaders, Kenneth Rogoff animates the remarkable postwar run of the dollar—how it beat out the Japanese yen, the Soviet ruble, and the euro—and the challenges it faces today from crypto and the Chinese yuan, the end of reliably low inflation and interest rates, political instability, and the fracturing of the dollar bloc. Americans cannot take for granted that the Pax Dollar era will last indefinitely, not only because many countries are deeply frustrated with the system, but also because overconfidence and arrogance can lead to unforced errors. Rogoff shows how America’s outsized power and exorbitant privilege can spur financial instability—not just abroad but also at home.

“[Rogoff’s] autobiographical element nicely enhances the sometimes technical (but always accessible) monetary story.”—James Grant, Wall Street Journal
