Über dieses Buch

Currency wars are rarely declared. They are fought through devaluation decisions made in closed finance ministries, through sanctions regimes that weaponize access to global payment systems, through competitive interest rate adjustments that export inflation across borders, and through the quiet accumulation of alternative reserve assets by nations seeking monetary independence. Money Battles traces this largely undeclared history—from the foundational agreements at Bretton Woods in 1944 through the collapse of the gold standard, the Plaza Accord, the Asian financial crisis, and into the digital currency competitions now reshaping the global monetary order. Drawing on treasury archives, IMF structural adjustment records, central bank policy documentation, and the testimony of economists and former policymakers, each chapter reconstructs a distinct episode in the history of monetary conflict. The book examines how the United States used dollar dominance to project geopolitical power, how rival economies—from Japan and Germany to China and Russia—developed strategies to insulate themselves from that power, and how the SWIFT system became as consequential a weapon as any military asset in the twenty-first century arsenal of economic statecraft. The final section examines the emerging battleground of digital currencies: central bank digital currencies, cryptocurrency adoption by sanctioned states, and the gradual construction of parallel financial infrastructure by nations seeking to reduce dollar dependency. Money Battles is a history of power expressed through monetary policy—rigorous, accessible, and essential for readers seeking to understand how the most consequential conflicts of our era are fought not on battlefields but in balance sheets, exchange rates, and the architecture of global finance.
