The United States and Fixed Exchange Rates

From the Paper:

Introduction
"The purpose of this research is to examine the question: should the United States (US) return to a system of fixed international currency exchange rates? Both the pro and the con positions are addressed in this research.


The Position Opposed to a Return to Fixed Exchange Rates
At the outset of this discussion, it must be understood that the US cannot unilaterally discard the floating exchange rate system, and return to a system of fixed rates. The system to be used must be acceptable to all of the participating countries, unless, of course, one country is both willing and capable of defending a fixed exchange rate for its currency in the face of a system which neither recognizes nor supports such a rate."
