Early work
concentrated on economic relations between Canada and the United States. My doctoral dissertation, The Canadian Dollar, concluded that flexible exchange rates had worked quite well for Canada in the 1950s. The study on the potential effects of free trade between the United States and Canada (with R. J. Wonnacott) concluded that the gains to Canada would be very large, primarily because of economies of scale and the possibility of reorganising the ‘branch plant’ industry of Canada.
Interest in international trade and financial policies led to service on the senior staffs of the Council of Economic Advisers and the Federal Reserve Board.
My intermediate text, Macroeconomics, was an attempt to move away from the Keynesian approach of most texts of the day, and to present some of the problems in Keynesian theory, particularly as an equilibrium system. I attemped to present a balanced evaluation of the Keynesian and classical approaches in a way which was readable and understandable by undergraduates.
Recent research has concentrated in two areas: exchange-market intervention and customs union theory. In my Princeton study, I found that United States intervention in the market for the DM in the late 1970s had been stabilising, in the sense that purchases (sales) had been made when the rate was below (above) the 12-month moving average.
I rejected profitability of intervention as the principal criterion for intervention. It is not clear why it should be the sole basis for judging exchange-market intervention, when practically nobody would use it for judging domestic openmarket operations. My work on customs union theory (with R. J. Wonnacott) has shown the narrowness of the common argument that customs unions are dominated by unilateral tariff reduction.
