edited by Sylvio Antonio Kappes (Assistant Professor, Federal University of Alagoas, Brazil, Co-Editor, Review of Political Economy and Co-Director, Monetary Policy Institute) and Andrés Arauz (Senior Research Fellow, Center for Economic and Policy Research, USA)

"In this prescient book, expert contributors from academic and policymaking circles explore dollarization in both theoretical and practical terms. They provide a fundamental resource for understanding the many forms in which dollarization can occur. Central Banking, Monetary Policy and the Political Economy of Dollarization analyzes important case studies from across continents including Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe. Through these findings, the book examines the political economy aspects of dollarization, critically assessing its potential outcomes. Contributors consider the role of central banks in dollarization, and provide a new perspective on the study of the phenomenon for a contemporary readership. This book is beneficial to academics and students focusing on economic disciplines such as financial regulation, banking, political economy and post-Keynesian economics. Central bankers and those working in the financial press will also find it useful"--
