The NBER project on alternative trade strategies and employment analyzed the extent to which employment and income distribution are affected by the choice of trade strategies and by the interaction of trade policies with domestic policies and market distortions. This book, the third and final volume to come from that project, brings together the theory underlying the trade strategies-employment relation and the empirical evidence emanating from the project.

This volume is intended to provide a survey of thought about exchange-rate determination as it emerged in the decade of the 1970s. This survey differs from many, however, in that the field itself is in a state of rapid change. Understanding the changes and the reasons for them is therefore essential if the reader is to have a basis for understanding future advances in knowledge and the further evolution of the system. The survey is also intended to reach non-specialist professional economists whose balance-of-payments theory was learned before the 1970s, as well as to provide graduate students and advanced undergraduates with an up-to-date account of the field. In most respects, the theory of exchange-rate determination is based upon an analytical structure equivalent to that analyzing the determinants of the balance of payments under fixed exchange rates. The difference is that the shifts in excess demand for foreign exchange lead to quantity adjustments under fixed rates and price adjustment under flexible rates. Thus, attention turns first to exchange-rate, or balance-of-payments, determination. Thereafter formal analyses of differences and similarities between the functioning of the alternative systems are considered, reflecting the focus of the profession and the mainstream of research of this period.

(Book by Krueger, Anne O.)
My early work was focussed on international trade and payments theory and its relevance for the understanding of the international economy. This led to asking how much of income differentials were accounted for by differences in factor endowments, whether racial discrimination could be explained in terms of a trade model and how highly restrictionist trade regimes really functioned. This led, first, to the effort to quantify domestic resource costs, and second, to a concern with the broader costs of individual restrictions, encompassed in part by the concept of rent-seeking.
An opportunity to analyse the Korean experience with trade and growth then led to questions about that interrelationship, on which I continue to work.
