Dollar and National Security

The Monetary Component of Hard Power

Edición de la obra The Dollar and National Security

In The Dollar and National Security, Paul Viotti explores the links between global capital flows, policy elites, and national security. After establishing the historical link between currency, gold, and security, he continues the monetary-security story by examining the instrumental role the dollar has played in American economic and national security over the past seven decades. He reveals how perceived individual and collective interests are the key drivers toward building the kind of durable consensus necessary to sustain the external financing of American foreign and national security policy, and addresses the future implications for national security as decision-makers in the BRICs and other countries position themselves to assume an even larger policy presence in global commercial, monetary, and security matters. --Provided by publisher.
