Part Four-Towards A New World Economy
Ceteros pudeat si qui se litteris abdiderunt ut nihil possint ex his neque ad communem affere fructum neque in adspectum lucemque proferre
CICERO, Pro Archia oratio, VI
I. Attempts, Tendencies and Problems
Whereas in the German edition of this book (1945), in view of the world situation at that time, a most gloomy picture had to be drawn of the breakdown of world economy, the task of its reintegration being represented with extreme emphasis to all responsible persons as something the implications of which had not yet been universally grasped, still less undertaken seriously, today (at the end of 1953) we have reached a stage of development at which a somewhat different language may be used.
II. International Monetary Order
WAYS TO CONVERTIBILITY
The words at which our last chapter closed, bring us once again to the cardinal problem, by the solution of which any genuine international order – extending far beyond the narrower, purely economic sphere, stands or falls. Compulsory exchange control has, indeed, revealed itself repeatedly as the final and most important cause of the disintegration of international economic relations.
Epilogue – European Free Trade, The Great Divide
The common market and the free trade area are the latest methods by which the goal of European economic integration is being sought.
