The semi-annual meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank are upon us.  The IMF’s managing director, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, has been urging for cooperation on an international revaluation of currencies as part of a larger effort to recover from the financial crisis.  The so-called “currency war,” Strauss-Kahn warns, demonstrates that “many do consider their currency as a weapon and that’s certainly not for the good of the global economy.”
