Essays in International Economics contains eleven of Fleming's previously published papers, and two hitherto unpublished ones. Many of the papers will already be familiar to academic economists: several constitute classics in the field. The Essays are grouped into three categories: trade restrictions and welfare; international monetary reform; and balance of payments policy and the adjustment process. Despite the fact that the arrangement within each group is chronological, the three subjects also correspond closely to the chronological order in which various issues in international economics have emerged since World War II. Thus, the first three papers are concerned with ways in which welfare can be maximized when trade restrictions and exchange control must be accepted as givens. The first paper, "On Making the Best of Balance-of-Payments Restrictions," focusses upon ways in which one could approach optimality given that some currencies are "stronger" than others, and that quantitative restrictions must therefore result. As an early attempt to deal with a "second-best" problem, the paper is of considerable interest. The second paper--"The Optimal Tariff from an International Standpoint"--concerns the ways in which poor countries could use their monopoly power in trade to enhance international welfare if the world welfare function attaches greater weights to improvements in real income in poor countries than in rich. Despite the fact that the developing countries generally impose duties upon imports, in which their monopoly power is probably zero, rather than taxing exports where some monopoly power does exist, the result is of some theoretical importance. The final paper of the first section, published in 1956, focusses upon estimating the real income loss associated with trade restrictions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This book about less-developed regions, is a supplementary volume to the Journal of Industrial Economics. It is edited by Professor Thomas Wilson. The nine papers, by ten authors, range widely. Mr.R.Garnsey records the experience of Courtaulds in a viscose filament factory established in 1950 in Northern Ireland. Three papers are devoted to regional problems and policies. One, by Mr.G. Humphrys, deals with South Wales; a second, by Mr.P.J.Bowden, is concerned with the North East of England; and the third, by Professor W.J.L. Ryan and Mr.M.O'Donoghue, is devoted to the Republic of Ireland. There follow two comparative studies--one of regional planning in France by Mr.M.C.MacLennan, and the other of planning in the Atlantic Provinces of Canada by Dr.A.C.Parks. The three remaining papers discuss matters which are both relevant and important for regional planning in the United Kingdom. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This book contains a collection of papers presented at a Monash University Conference in September 1969. There was no unifying theme to the Conference, except for being in the field of international economics, broadly conceived. Therefore, the papers range over various aspects of international trade and finance. They include contributions in the area of trade theory (Corden, Grubel, Johnson, Laing, McDougan), various treatments of tariffs and preferences (Evans, Gruen and Corden, Lloyd), considerations of international capital movements and the international corporation (Johnson, Webb, Snape, Pitchford), and a paper on the international monetary system (Johnson). Methodologically, the contributions range from abstract theory to applied economics to consideration of current policy issues. Under the first category fall the paper by McDougall on non-traded goods in international trade; Pitchford on foreign investments and the national advantage in a dynamic context; Webb on international capital movement and the optimum taxation of capital flows. The second category includes among others the paper by Lloyd on the Australian preference scheme (subsequently extended in a follow-up paper in the Economic Records of March 1971), while under the third heading belongs the paper by Johnson on the current international monetary "crisis." These examples illustrate the diversity of topics covered in the book; diversity which defies a comprehensive review of its contents. The following discussion concentrates on the papers thought to be of interest to the readers of the Journal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
