  • General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade
    / RESTRICTED C/W/362 GENERAL AGREEMENT ON 29 May 1981 TARIFFS AND TRADE Limited Distribution REGIONAL AGREEMENTS Calendar of Biennial Reports for Examination At their twenty-seventh session the CONTRACTING PARTIES instructed the Council to establish a calendar fixing dates for the examination, every two years, of the reports on regional agreements (SR.27/12, page 167). In November 1978 the Council agreed on a time-table covering the period April 1979-October 1980 (L/4725). In order to assist the Council in establishing a new calendar, there is herewith attached a table showing various agreements, the dates on which the last biennial reports were submitted or, if applicable, the dates of the reports of the relevant working parties. On the basis of these data a tentative calendar has been suggested for the submission of reports. The table does not include agreements in respect of which the question of biennial reporting was not decided by the Counci I. The listing has been prepared without prejudice to the possibility that certain agreements among developing countries may be covered by the Decision on Differential and More Favourable Treatment, Reciprocity and Fuller Participation of Developing Countries ("enabling clause") (BISD 26S/203). It might be noted in this respect that the Committee on Trade and Development has primary responsibility for super­ vision of the implementation of that Decision. (3ISD 26S/219) When establishing a new time-table, the Council will be aware that some of the agreements listed may be renegotiated in the ensuing period. The time-table may, therefore, be revised as appropriate.

  • The Reform of October 1979: How It Happened and Why
    Centennial Issue The Reform of October 1979: How It Happened and Why David E. Lindsey, Athanasios Orphanides, and Robert H. Rasche This study offers a historical review of the monetary policy reform of October 6, 1979, and discusses the influences behind it and its significance. We lay out the record from the start of 1979 through the spring of 1980, relying almost exclusively on contemporaneous sources, including the recently released transcripts of Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meetings during 1979. We then present and discuss in detail the reasons for the FOMC’s adoption of the reform and the communications challenge presented to the Committee during this period. Further, we examine whether the essential characteris tics of the reform were consistent with monetarism; new, neo, or old-fashioned Keynesianism; nominal income targeting; and inflation targeting. The record suggests that the reform was adopted when the FOMC became convinced that its earlier gradualist strategy using finely tuned interest rate moves had proved inadequate for fighting inflation and reversing inflation expectations. The new plan had to break dramatically with established practice, allow for the possibility of substantial increases in short-term interest rates yet be politically acceptable, and convince financial market participants that it would be effective. The new operating procedures were also adopted for the pragmatic reason that they would likely succeed. This article first appeared in the March/April 2005 issue of Review . Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis Review , November/December 2013, 95 (6), pp. 487-541. Do we have the wit and the wisdom to restore an environment of price stability without impair - ing economic stability? Should we fail, I fear the distortions and uncertainty generated by infla - tion itself will greatly extend and exaggerate the sense of malaise and caution...Should we succeed, I believe the stage will have been set for a new long period of prosperity.
