| Sumari: | The international monetary system is largely the product of negotiations during World War II between U.S. and U.K. officials, led respectively by Harry Dexter White and John Maynard Keynes.

Examination of White's economic papers shows that he was more multilateral than Keynes and placed a higher priority on monetary discipline. |
