Abstract

In the paper the author analyses the problems faced by all countries, developed and developing alike, under the prevailing rules of the game of the international economy. He firstly refers to the historical developments that brought about to-day´s payment and exchange rules of the game, he then deals with the difficulties that will confront any country trying to pursue in isolation expansionary demand polices, and he also shows that it would be impossible that export-led policies could be implemented by all countries simultaneously. Later he considers the process that led to the birth of the FMI, as well as the limits of the rules of the game which have prevailed during the last decades, and he shows that the recent changes at the world level reinforce Keynes’s overall outlook on the subject. Finally, he puts forward three simple and concrete suggestions, that could be easily implemented and that might contribute to the improvement of the payment and exchanges global architecture.// En este artículo el autor analiza los problemas que hoy enfrenta la economía internacional, y los países en desarrollo dentro de ella, dado el conjunto de reglas prevalecientes. Con base en el examen de esos problemas ofrece algunas sugerencias que podrían mejorar la arquitectura de pagos e intercambios internacionales vigente. En un primer apartado se ubica el análisis en un contexto histórico y se hace referencia a los límites para aplicar políticas expansivas en una economía abierta, junto con la imposibilidad de que se pueda lograr un crecimiento a escala planetaria apoyando en un aumento de las exportaciones. Más adelante se destacan las reflexiones de Keynes y los acuerdos que condujeron al establecimiento del FMI, así como las insuficiencias del ordenamiento internacional que de allí surgió. Se hace referencia también a los cambios que ha tenido la economía internacional en los decenios recientes y se muestra que los problemas planteados por Keynes tienen hoy incluso mayor relevancia que en el pasado. Finalmente, se formulan tres propuestas sencillas y concretas que permitirían avanzar hacia una nueva arquitectura financiera internacional para superar algunos de los problemas que presenta la que rige en la actualidad.
