About this ebook
IMF Creation Impact explores the origins and lasting effects of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), a critical institution born from the Bretton Woods Conference. It examines how this organization was intended to foster global economic stability and manage currency exchange rates following World War II. The book highlights the visionaries behind the IMF, such as John Maynard Keynes and Harry Dexter White, and their contrasting ideas for the post-war financial order.
The book investigates the IMF's interventions in numerous economic crises, including those in Latin America and Asia, revealing a complex legacy of both successes and failures. It analyzes how the IMF's policies, particularly its approach to macroeconomic management, have been both praised and criticized. Some view the IMF as a crucial tool for preventing competitive currency devaluations, while others argue its austerity measures can harm borrowing countries.
Using a blend of historical analysis and economic data, the book progresses chronologically, tracing the IMF's evolution and impact on global finance.
