Abstract: | We discuss three well known plans that were offered in the twentieth century to provide an artificial replacement for gold
and key currencies as international reserves: Keynes’ Bancor, the SDR and the Ecu(predecessor to the euro).The latter two
of these reserve substitutes were institutionalized but neither replaced the dollar as the principal medium of international
reserve. |
