Need Help

Anyway, I am currently working on a research proposal about pegged-currency (and floating currency system) across both western and eastern hemisphere, as a way to minimize the impact of currency crisis in the future. I am still a newbie into this field, so if anyone read this and is willing to help, please tell me any good books that talks about the above.

I know that Krugman's the Return of Depression Economics as well as Greenspan's Age of Turbulence are pretty good, but its not too scholarly written. I need the more technical one, but it has to be pretty recently written. Oshiete kudasai! (_ _)

i did read a couple of things... and there is never be perfect model to predict the timing of the crisis. Both domestic currency and the pegged/floating system have its own advantage and pitfalls

the thing gov could do is to enhance foreign reserves, strengthen domestic monetary policy and deliberately regulate the money supply (by stipulating the right interest rate by the central bank)

so theres not much to say then. and i am a sucker for tedious econometrics algebra '((&'&'%%&$'&$('&)

what to do with the research plan? dou shiyou? dou shiyou???

epic fail ;__;

Interesting Reference:
All of Paul Krugman's Work (available for free from MIT websites)
Obstfeld's work (thats also free)
The Lexus and The Olive Tree (Thomas Friedman)
As well as all enlightening currency crises across Latin, European Monetary System and Asian

GANBATTE!!!
