Prof Michael HUDSON - De-Dollarization – Toward the End of U.S. Monetary Hegemony?
MGPE Seminar titled "De-Dollarization – Toward the End of U.S. Monetary Hegemony?" on 20 November 2019. (https://mgpe.ssc.cuhk.edu.hk/en/news/detail/39)
Since the end of World War II, the United States has been the world’s hegemonic power. In economic, military, and cultural spheres, the U.S. has enjoyed nearly unrivalled supremacy. However, unlike past hegemons, which have been net creditors to the rest of the world, the United States is a net debitor; but this is a strength, not a weakness. U.S. debt is an integral feature of its economic dominance, through which the United States receives goods and services from the rest of the world in exchange for dollars it can print and keystroke into existence. Yet cracks are showing in the foundations of dollar hegemony, as countries look to find ways to escape from U.S. economic dominance. In this talk, Prof. HUDSON will discuss the prospects and challenges of global de-dollarization, and how countries like China may forge a way toward a different monetary system free of U.S. control.
