ECONOMIC COOPERATION IN AN UNCERTAIN WORLD

This innovative new book re-examines the case for macroeconomic cooperation in a context of uncertainty, something that policymakers have long doubted. Using both theoretical models and empirical techniques, Atish Ghosh and Paul Masson argue that macroeconomic uncertainties, far from precluding international coordination, actually enhance its importance.
Features of the book include a new theoretical approach to policy coordination; advanced solution techniques for optimal policies in the face of uncertainty; and the use of sophisticated methods to consider real-world policy problems.
Written for students and professionals working in the fields of open economy macroeconomics and international relations, the book provides a comprehensive study of international economic policy cooperation, including the problems of negotiating and sustaining international agreements.

Atish R. Ghosh is Assistant Professor of Economics and International Affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and the Department of Economics, Princeton University.
