As with earlier crises, these concerns prompted calls for greater international policy cooperation-both to achieve a sustainable recovery from the crisis and to prevent future crises. This volume compiles papers from a 2015 symposium of eminent scholars convened by the IMF to discuss how history can inform current debates about the functioning and challenges of the international monetary system. An introductory chapter sets the stage for the other chapters in the volume by giving a broad overview of the performance of the international monetary system over the past century, highlighting the key events and challenges that shaped it. Subsequent sections look at historical antecedents of today's challenges, describe how the modern international monetary system has been-and continues to be-shaped through international financial diplomacy, provide a present-day perspective, and examine the analytics of international policy coordination. 0aMonetary policyxInternational cooperation.91040 0aEconomic policyxInternational cooperation.91041 0aRecessions.91042 0aDepressionsy1929.91043 0aInternational finance.9862 0aExchange rates.91044 0aElectronic books.98391 aGhosh, Atish R.,eeditor.910451 aQureshi, Mahvash Saeed,eeditor.910462 aInternational Monetary Fund.91010 2ddccBKn0 aGIFTbOthersc2026-08-25 c240d240
