Emerging technologies promise to keep unemployment a major issue, even if all Western economies get out of recession. By 2010, China will introduce as much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere as the entire world does today. And community breakdown is one of the most systemic, deep, and complex societal trends of the past 30 years, with no signs of any reversal. Precisely because we will have to live with these issues for the foreseeable future, only a long-term structural approach can successfully resolve these problems. Here I show how community currencies could contribute to tackling all three problems and also permit us to "retrofit" economic motivation to desirable human behavior.

Third World Money and Debt in the Twentieth Century
See also Money in Fiction Financial Scandals Why is much of the Third World bedevilled by weak currencies and wracked by inflation? Can orthodox Western economic remedies work in countries undergoing a Population Explosion?
Monetarism and the Silent Explosion
Is inflation merely a matter of printing too much money?
"There is an additional factor, 'real' as opposed to 'financial', which helps to explain the sustained strength of worldwide inflationary forces and yet remains unmentioned in most modern works on money and inflation, viz the pressure of a rapidly expanding world population on finite resources - virtually a silent explosion as far as monetarist literature is concerned. Thus nowhere in Friedman's powerful, popular and influential book Free to Choose is there any mention of the population problem, nor the slightest hint that the inflation on which he is acknowledged to be the world's greatest expert might in any way be caused by the rapidly rising potential and real demands of the thousands of millions born into the world since he began his researches." The quotation above is from page 5 of the book by Glyn Davies discussing the entire time span of recorded monetary history: Davies, Glyn. A

Foreign Exchange is the largest of the global financial markets. Daily trading volume in the currency markets is estimated to be 1.1 US trillion dollars. The volatility seen in the currency markets can create potential risk as well as opportunity for clients. Our FX sales specialists can provide advice on hedging currency exposure, transacting foreign exchange or exploring investment opportunities in currency-linked products.
Spot Transactions and Conversions
The purchase or sale of a currency against another for immediate delivery (generally two business days after the trade date.) For example, a U.S. manufacturer has to pay its overseas parts supplier in Japanese Yen. The client locks in a spot rate today and will wire the U.S. funds into its account for settlement in two business days. Conversions - Non-credit sensitive* FX transactions for immediate delivery (generally same day). The funds for conversion must be in your Smith Barney account before the transaction is done. For example, the client is closing on a property in the UK. He or she needs to pay in British pounds. We can convert the required US dollars from the client's Smith Barney account to British pounds and wire the currency as per the client's instructions.

    http://mars.acnet.wnec.edu/~grempel/courses/wc2/lectures/depression.html
    The Great Depression
    It was appropriate that the terrible economic slump of the 1930s started in the United States, to which Europe seemed to have surrendered economic leadership during the Great War and on which she had been dependent ever since.
    Stock Market Crash
    The stock market crash that began on a black Friday in October 1929 and deepened in the ensuing months had immediate repercussion in Europe. Indeed, even before this, the superheated boom in stock prices that marked the bull market of 1928 siphoned money from Europe. The pricking of the bubble sent shock waves throughout the world.
    Large exports of American capital had helped sustain Europe, besides providing an outlet for American surpluses of capital, during the 1920s. Investment in European bonds now contracted sharply and swiftly, as banks that were "caught short" with too many of their assets invested in securities desperately tried to raise money. By June 1930, the price of securities on Wall Street was about 20 percent, on average, of what it had been prior to the crash; between 1929 and 1932 the Dow-Jones average of industrial stock prices fell from a high of 381 to a low of 41!
    The American market for European imports also dropped sharply as the entire American economy went into shock; and, to compound trouble, congress insisted on passing a high tariff law in 1930, against the advice of almost all economists. Effective operation of the international economy required that the United States import goods to allow foreign governments to pay for American loans. Moreover, the raising of tariffs set off a chain reaction as every government tried to protect itself against an adverse trade balance leading to currency deterioration. The result was a drying up of world trade that further fueled the economic downturn. The Americans, additionally, continued to insist upon repayment of war debts, until finally in 1931 a general moratorium was declared. Well might Europeans complain of American blindness, but these events only exposed Europe's vulnerability.

    Three-Currency World Now Seems Plausible
    With the successful introduction of the euro currency, some economists and politicians are looking to the day when a dollar zone in the Americas and a yen zone in the Far East result in a three-currency world. By Michael Lindemann Start Date: 1/25/99 It could not have been imagined a few years ago. But then, the nations of Europe decided to pool their economic fortunes behind the unified currency called the euro, officially adopted in eleven nations on January 1, 1999. And then, scant weeks later, the South American nation of Argentina proposed to abandon its own currency, the peso, and adopt the U.S. dollar, an idea that drew wide praise as both politically bold and economically wise. If Argentina follows through, its lead might well be followed by other nations of Latin America, perhaps resulting in a "dollar zone" to rival the "euro zone." Sensing the inevitable, some analysts say the next development would be a "yen zone" in the Far East. Within a decade or two, if these analysts are correct, the majority of nations on earth might peg their economies to one of just three big currencies. Argentina's initiative was spurred in part by growing economic chaos in Brazil, where the real was recently allowed to float against other world currencies and plunged 30 percent in value in the two weeks ending January 22. Brazil had attempted to shore up the real's value by selling off some $40 billion in hard currency reserves over the last six months, but to little avail.
