  • Toward a Philippine Legal Response to Global Finance: a National Security Perspective∗
    Toward a Philippine Legal Response To Global Finance: A National Security Perspective∗ HECTOR DANNY D. UY∗∗ Introduction National security has been defined as that state or condition of the nation wherein the people’s way of life and institutions, their territorial integrity and sovereignty including their well-being are protected and enhanced. Its several components include the economic, political, military, environmental and socio-cultural dimensions of security. Threats to national existence that take any of these forms are actually threats to national security. There are seven fundamental elements that lie at the core of national security. These are: territorial integrity, ecological balance, socio-political stability, cultural cohesiveness, moral-spiritual consensus, external peace and economic solidarity. Economic solidarity is achieved when the economy is strong, capable of supporting national endeavors and derives its strength from the people who have an organic stake in it through their participation and ownership. On dealing with economic issues and concerns, the state shall continue implementing reforms that would generally improve the people’s lives and boost the economy by strengthening the capital markets, enhancing the foreign and domestic investment, and improving the business climate of the country.1 The recent Asian financial crisis of 1997 threatened the very existence of the Philippines as a state, just like other global financial crises that have left their indelible marks of destruction on other nations. The ∗ This paper is a condensed version of a thesis submitted by the author to the National Defense College of the Philippines (NDCP) in August 2005 to complete the requirements for a Master in National Security Administration (MNSA) degree.

  • International Financial Policy John Coleman up to This
    International Financial Policy John Coleman Up to this point in the course we developed the concept of a “real” (or “supply”) shock as well as a framework to understand the effects of real shocks on the global economy. Variables we considered consisted of the real values of the wage rate, employment, GDP, the interest rate, savings, consumption, investment, the current account, and the exchange rate. We also built on this material by examining the long-run determinants of the price level and its rate of change (inflation). Once we understood what determined the price level and its rate of change we were in a position to discuss key determinants of nominal variables such as nominal GDP, nominal interest rates, and nominal exchange rates. This lecture develops the concept of a “monetary” shock as well as a framework to understand the effects of monetary shocks on the global economy. Once we have a solid understanding of the effects of monetary shocks, we will be in a position to understand how any country uses its international financial policy to manipulate its economy, and the goals it attempts to achieve be setting its international financial policy. In this sense, this lecture is perhaps the key lecture in this course. I wish to start this lecture on monetary policy and the economy with a cautionary note. In attributing real effects to shocks stemming from monetary policy, in this course we will take the perspective of the loanable-funds theory. This view of the effects of monetary policy shocks seems to closely reflect the views of both central banks and the financial press.

Manila International Airport Authority General Manager Alfonso G. Cusi, 3. Philippine National Police Director General Edgar B. Aglipay, 4. Bureau of Immigration Commissioner Alipio F. Fernandez 5.
