책소개

In this updated, second edition of the highly acclaimed international best seller, The Dollar Crisis: Causes, Consequences, Cures, Richard Duncan describes the flaws in the international monetary system that have destabilized the global economy and that may soon culminate in a deflation-induced worldwide economic slump.The Dollar Crisis is divided into five parts:Part One describes how the US trade deficits, which now exceed US$1 million a minute, have destabilized the global economy by creating a worldwide credit bubble.Part Two explains why these giant deficits cannot persist and why a US recession and a collapse in the value of the Dollar are unavoidable.Part Three analyzes the extraordinarily harmful impact that the US recession and the collapse of the Dollar will have on the rest of the world.Part Four offers original recommendations that, if implemented, would help mitigate the damage of the coming worldwide downturn and put in place the foundations for balanced and sustainable economic growth in the decades ahead.Part Five, which has been newly added to the second edition, describes the extraordinary evolution of this crisis since the first edition was completed in September 2002. It also considers how the Dollar Crisis is likely to unfold over the years immediately ahead, the likely policy response to the crisis, and why that response cannot succeed.The Dollar Standard is inherently flawed and increasingly unstable. Its collapse will be the most important economic event of the 21st Century.

출판사 서평

Posterity may remember The Dollar Crisis as a seminal book in the field of 21st century economics. Indeed, rarely has a book offered such a grim yet, well argued view of the current economic situation facing the world.-- Steven Irvine, FinanceAsia Duncan writes like a man who&-s already seen tomorrow. -- James Grant, Grant&-s Interest Rate ObserverI held a class for about 150 people on the book entitled "The Dollar Crisis," authored by Richard Duncan.

In other words, the governments of the world have printed too much "funny" money and cash will soon turn to trash.& Even if you are not in real estate or are saving dollars, you may want to read this book to find out what you need to invest in now, before the bubble bursts. If you are in stocks and mutual funds, you definitely want to read this book.-- Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad, Poor DadI would like every one of my subscribers to click on to Amazon.com and buy a new book that has just been published entitled, &"The Dollar Crisis, Causes, Consequences, Cures.&"& The book costs around twenty bucks and is worth ten times that amount.& The author, Richard Duncan has a great background and is as smart as they come.& He explains why he sees a crashing dollar and a severe recession coming up in the US &~ plus a world recession.& This is no wild-eyed guru, this is a guy who knows what he&-s talking about and a guy who understands money and the world monetary system &~ he&-s worked for both the World Bank and the Internat
