Title: The changing role of central banks
Description: What are the conditions that gave rise to the change in central banks? Without recourse to ideological arguments, Chorafas derives lessons from current economic and financial challenges as well as failures in confronting them. Through this approach, "The Changing Role of Central Banks" brings into perspective financial, political, and social reactions to major economic problems of the last ten years, particularly those pertaining to money and initiatives taken by central banks, and the parallel challenge of bank regulation. -- From the back cover of the book.
