Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Allan H. Meltzers critically acclaimed history of the Federal Reserve is the most ambitious, most intensive, and most revealing investigation of the subject ever conducted. Its first volume, published to widespread critical acclaim in 2003, spanned the period from the institutions founding in 1913 to the restoration of its independence in 1951. This twopart second volume of the history chronicles the evolution and development of this institution from the TreasuryFederal Reserve accord in 1951 to the mid1980s, when the great inflation ended. It reveals the inner workings of the Fed during a period of rapid and extensive change. An epilogue discusses the role of the Fed in resolving our current economic crisis and the needed reforms of the financial system.In rich detail, drawing on the Federal Reserves own documents, Meltzer traces the relation between its decisions and economic and monetary theory, its experience as an institution independent of politics, and its role in tempering inflation. He explains, for example, how the Federal Reserves independence was often compromised by the active policymaking roles of Congress, the Treasury Department, different presidents, and even White House staff, who often pressured the bank to take a shortterm view of its responsibilities. With an eye on the present, Meltzer also offers solutions for improving the Federal Reserve, arguing that as a regulator of financial firms and lender of last resort, it should focus more attention on incentives for reform, mediumterm consequences, and rulelike behavior for mitigating financial crises. Less attention should be paid, he contends, to command and control of the markets and the noise of quarterly data.At a time when the United States finds itself in an unprecedented financial crisis, Meltzers fascinating history will be the source of record for scholars and policy makers navigating an uncertain economic future.
