New York. 1995. June 1995. Simon & Schuster. 1st Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0684801825. 606 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Bernadette Evangelist. keywords: Banking Politics. FROM THE PUBLISHER-In THE CONFIDENCE GAME, journalist Steven Solomon penetrates the closed circles of some of the most powerful and least known figures in the global economy-the central bankers. As interest rates, exchange rates, and financial crises make headlines, the spotlight has increasingly turned on these notoriously secretive unelected men who create and manage the world's money from behind the walls of the U.S. Federal Reserve, the German Bundesbank, the Bank of Japan, the Bank of England, and the enigmatic Bank for International Settlements in Switzerland. THE CONFIDENCE GAME informs us how central bankers and world leaders dealt with the LDC debt crisis of the early 1980s, the near collapse of the dollar, the 1987 stock market crash and its ripple effect around the world, the boom and bust of the Japanese ‘bubble economy, ' and the global recession of the early 1990s. With national politics increasingly held hostage to maintaining the confidence of global financial markets, democratic governments are transferring more and more governing authority and political independence to these unelected central bankers with expectations of economic prosperity that are unlikely to be met. inventory #22474.

Seller's Description:
Very good, very good. 606, notes, selected bibliography, index. Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews, the author takes us on a behind-closed-doors look at the elite cadre that controls the international money supply. He reveals how the global economy has come perilously close to collapsing and discusses how individual governments have exerted increased pressure on the central bankers, threatening the integrity of the international monetary system as a whole. Former Forbes reporter Solomon believes that the tiny, secretive circle of unelected central bankers who manage the world's money supply and shape key financial policies wields too much power. The central bankers include U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan, German Bundesbank president Karl Otto Pohl, and Bank of England governor Eddie George and their peers in Japan, Switzerland, France, Italy and Canada.
