Summary

Monetary Policy Shift delves into the crucial transition of the United States from the Bretton Woods system of fixed exchange rates to the flexible exchange rates prevalent today. It examines the economic and political factors that led to the breakdown of Bretton Woods, a system established in 1944 to promote stability by pegging exchange rates to the U.S. dollar, which was convertible to gold. One key insight is how rising inflation and balance of payments deficits ultimately rendered the fixed exchange rate regime unsustainable. The book argues this shift wasn't just technical but a fundamental change in economic management.

 
The book explores the challenges of managing monetary policy under flexible exchange rates, including increased volatility and the rise of new financial instruments. Using archival documents and econometric analysis, it traces the evolution of U.S. monetary policy, highlighting how policymakers adapted their strategies. For instance, the adoption of inflation targeting became a critical tool in maintaining economic stability.

 
The book progresses chronologically, starting with the establishment of Bretton Woods, then dissecting its collapse, and finally analyzing the implications of flexible exchange rates.

    "A superior volume on Christian antiracism."--Publishers Weekly 
     
    Racism is omnipresent in American life, both public and private. We are immersed in what prominent faith leader Willie Dwayne Francois III calls white noise--the racist speech, ideas, and policies that lull us into inaction on racial justice. White noise masks racial realities and prevents constructive responses to microaggressions, structural inequality, and overt interpersonal racism. 
     
    In this book, Francois calls people of all racial backgrounds to take up practices that overcome silence and inaction on race and that advance racial repair. Drawing from his anti-racism curriculum, the Public Love Organizing and Training (PLOT) Project, Francois encourages us to move from a "colorblind" stance of mythic innocence to one that takes an honest account of our national history and acknowledges our complicity in racism as a prelude to anti-racist interventions. 
     
    Weaving together personal narrative, theology, and history, this book invites us to engage 6 "rhythms of reparative intercession." These are six practices of anti-racism that aim to repair harm by speaking up and "acting up" on behalf of others. Silencing White Noise offers concrete ways to help people wrest free from the dangers of racism and to develop lifelong Christian anti-racist practices.
