The Rules of the Global Game: A New Look at U.S. International Economic Policy Making

Author Kenneth Dam, the current U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, helps the business professional understand the basics of economic policy making by discussing how decisions are made and their impact on the global economy. The book explores the foundations of U.S. economic policies, with chapters describing other key components such as foreign trade and investments, and international monetary and financial systems. Using examples such as GATT, NAFTA, and the Asian financial crisis, the author presents a framework for the non-economist to better comprehend the ins and outs of international economic policy making.
