Book
The basic motivation underlying this book is the relationship between politicalprocesses and macroeconomic consequences especially in the area of monetarypolicy. Monetary policy is an area where political considerations regularlyimpact upon economic results. In the politically and economically turbulentperiod from the late 1960s through the early 1980s it became clear that thedirections taken by monetary policy were changing with some frequency. By thelate 1970s it became obvious that monetary policys reactions to the state ofthe economy shifted in a rather irregular pattern. Moreover it was equallyapparent that since 1970 many of the impulses for these shifts appeared to comefrom the executive branch of government. In the mid 1980s evidence demonstratedrealistically how monetary policy is related to political phenomena. The authorhas spent the last thirty years investigating and measuring the political andprivate sector pressures on monetary policy and showing how the monetaryauthority assimilates and responds to these pressures. This book is the firstand most comprehensive study of outside political and private influences onFederal Reserve policy. «
