An in-depth look at the history, leadership, and structure of the Federal Reserve Bank

The independence of the Federal Reserve is considered a cornerstone of its identity, crucial for keeping monetary policy decisions free of electoral politics. But do we really understand what is meant by "Federal Reserve independence"? Using scores of examples from the Fed's rich history, The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve shows that much common wisdom about the nation's central bank is inaccurate. Legal scholar and financial historian Peter Conti-Brown provides an in-depth look at the Fed's place in government, its internal governance structure, and its relationships to such individuals and groups as the president, Congress, economists, and bankers.


Exploring how the Fed regulates the global economy and handles its own internal politics, and how the law does—and does not—define the Fed's power, Conti-Brown captures and clarifies the central bank's defining complexities. He examines the foundations of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, which established a system of central banks, and the ways that subsequent generations have redefined the organization. Challenging the notion that the Fed Chair controls the organization as an all-powerful technocrat, he explains how institutions and individuals—within and outside of government—shape Fed policy. Conti-Brown demonstrates that the evolving mission of the Fed—including systemic risk regulation, wider bank supervision, and as a guardian against inflation and deflation—requires a reevaluation of the very way the nation's central bank is structured.


Investigating how the Fed influences and is influenced by ideologies, personalities, law, and history, The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve offers a clear picture of this uniquely important institution.

レビュー

One of Financial Times (FT.com) Best Books of 2016 "Mr. Conti-Brown, a gifted legal historian who teaches at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, ... has accomplished two near impossibilities: He has opened up new areas of inquiry on an overworn topic, and he has made them intellectually rigorous as well as riveting to read about."--Kevin A. Hassett, Wall Street Journal "With plenty in the media recently about Federal Reserve Chairwoman Janet Yellen and attempts to raise interest rates, [The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve] could not have come at a more opportune time. Readers concerned with monetary policy and the role of the Federal Reserve will discover that this specialized title has much to offer."--Library Journal "[A] stimulating book... Conti-Brown gives us much food for thought about how central banks go about their work."--David Green, Financial World "Conti-Brown's clear analysis and elegant language make the book a fascinating read."--Biz Ed Magazine "Conti-Brown makes a compelling case for change."--Michael Reddell, Central Banking Journal "He explains clearly how complex relationships shape the Fed's independence in a meticulous study of its political, economic and constitutional history."--Philip Augar, Financial Times "Peter's book should spur lawyers and academics to think critically about the FOMC's constitutional status. And whether or not we agree with Peter's conclusion, his book will serve to define the terms of the debate."--Daniel Hemel, Yale Journal of Regulation blog "While the topic is complex, layered, and labyrinthine, Conti-Brown's clear analysis and elegant language make the book a fascinating read."--Biz Ed Magazine "This book is an interesting, even scary, account of the governance of the Federal Reserve, with examples of the influence of personalities in ways not anticipated by law."--John H. Wood, EH.Net "Peter Conti-Brown has produced a page-turner that takes the reader through the history, legal framework, economic management and personalities of the U.S. Federal Reserve from its founding in 1913 to Janet Yellen's administration as chairwoman of the august institution. That this is compelling reading speaks to his skill as a writer... This book is that rarest of beasts: serious financial analysis in a wonderfully well written story."--Financial Post "Beginning with its founding, [Conti-Brown] carefully walks readres through the changes to the practice and structure of the Federal Reserve system. In doing so, he has not only a historian's eye for important facts and details but also a lawyer's perspective on administrative law and power relationships. This is one of those books many readers will find illuminating even while disagreeing vehemently with one or two items."--Choice "Excellent... I highly recommend this book for readers interested in the Federal Reserve System."--Scott Sumner, Econlog "Peter Conti-Brown's The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve (Princeton) is a study of what might be called the Fed's unwritten constitution... For today's Fed leaders, it is a sobering lesson."--Sebastian Mallaby, Financial Times

5つ星のうち4.0 Interesting perspective on an important topic, and from a non-economist
2016年11月3日に英国でレビュー済み

This is a nice book on an important subject - the US Federal Reserve - and from the perspective of someone other than an economist.

The author makes an important point about the number of ways that the current Fed is not exactly working as originally (or even latterly) contemplated by the drafters of the Federal Reserve Act. I had always wondered, for example, how the Regional Fed Presidents were appointed. The author's answers is simple: unconstitutionally. I'd also wondered how Central Banks had become so fixated on short-term interest rates as their policy rate: the reason has to do with the resolution of an old fight between Washington NY regarding who is really running monetary policy.

The book also has a great bibliography which, for anyone vaguely interested in Fed history, is a goldmine of interesting looking books and articles just by itself.

5つ星のうち5.0 The most informative and readable explanation of the Federal Reserve you will ever find.
2016年1月21日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

This is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the federal reserve. Conti-Brown expertly dispels false myth and lore about the federal reserve and clearly explains the origins and the functions of federal reserve independence. There is so much misunderstanding about how the fed functions--even many so-called fed experts misstate the structure of the federal reserve. This is because the federal reserve is unique among all government institutions and in order to understand it, you must know its origins, founding mission, and historic development. The federal reserve's "independence" is seen by some as dangerous and others as essential. But how exactly is the federal reserve independent and from whom? Conti-Brown has written a book chock full of expert analysis, fascinating stories, myth-busting examples, and hard-to-forget analogies all in a very readable narrative. This book should be required reading in every law school, business school, and college classroom where the federal reserve is discussed. And any policymaker who wants to "audit the fed," change it, or give it more power should also read this book.

5つ星のうち4.0 Interesting overview of the incomplete legal structure of the Fed, content of the criticism is partially convincing
2016年12月28日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve is a very topical book in the aftermath of the financial crisis as the mandate of the institution has shifted quite dramatically. This is quite a different book than most on the Fed as it focuses on the legal structure of the Fed and how it lies in a vague land of accountability and how this is questionable at the least and unconstitutional in many interpretations of the law. The message of the book is that the technocratic nature of the Fed is overstated and behind the economics lies potential ideology and thus the independence that often goes with the territory and how that independence is structured likely needs to be rethought.

The author describes the history of the Fed and how it evolved from its formation a century ago where it was a Federalist institution to the centralized power it is now. The author describes how those transitions took place and the main characters who aided that process. The author discusses the history of the Fed to highlight how it got to the powers it has and how today's structure is not how it was initially structured but a combination of circumstance and political mandate changes. The author discusses the uniqueness of the Fed's accountability to the United States president given it is a mixture of publicly inaugurated officials like the Fed Chair and the privately hired members like the various bank presidents. This is argued to be unconstitutional and the author gives the case history which has brought this up in the past. The author goes into the economic philosophies that have driven monetary economists over the years and how the real bills doctrine is an extremely distant memory from today's Fed. The author argues that the fed is much more similar to the Supreme court and should potentially be structured and organized as such rather than the quasi government private institution it is today. It is definitely an interesting overview of the legal cloud which the Fed operates under and for those interested in the legal structure of the Fed this book is a reminder of its existence outside the boundaries of democratic accountability.

I definitely sympathize with the author's direction of the book. The actions taken by the Fed have had political repercussions and as a consequence, the mandate of the Fed and the accountability of the institution has changed from their original intent. Consequently a rethinking of what the degrees of freedom of the Fed should be are in order. Unfortunately this is an extremely complex issue and more democratic accountability of an institution that requires a level of knowledge and expertise that is far removed from the voting body leads to close to an unsolvable balancing act. The basis of ideology in monetary policy exists, bankers at the ECB, the FED, BOJ all have different views on how to solve problems within their mandates. But to see this as similar to the Supreme Court is really something that a lawyer would say and would be unconvincing to pretty much anyone else. The general public can understand judges opinions on ethical issues which makes democratic participation a much more fruitful exercise because value are intrinsic and relatively easy to reflect on. Understanding what a federal reserve bank president thinks about the implications of asset purchases on balancing growth and income inequality, though interesting to .1% of the population, is not an issue that lends itself to democratic accountability nor general popular debate about the truth of that statement. Despite the greater paternalism required for the "election" of central banking expertise vs Supreme Court justices say, there is a democratic deficit in what has occurred during and post the financial crisis with the Fed. Value judgments were made and there is no accountability of those making them and we have to ask ourselves, does that need changing and if so how. To imagine that the value systems that drive central bankers should be under the spotlight as are those of our justices is a massive overestimation of the general public's ability to have a meaningful opinion on such topics.

5つ星のうち5.0 This book is a must-read for people like me who have little to no background in law

I used to have a Churchillian thought pop into my head whenever the topic of the Federal Reserve came up, "It was a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma." But then I found the key: The Power and Independence of the Federal Reserve. This book is a must-read for people like me who have little to no background in law, banking, finance, or economics (outside the occasional article from the WSJ or the Economist) and who want to understand what the Fed actually is and what it actually does. Instead of amplifying the Fed's intimidating mystique, Peter Conti-Brown punctures it with straightforward metaphors, easy-to-read prose, and a handful of simple yet effective visual aids. As an avid nonfiction reader, my test for this type of book after reading it is whether it I feel I could explain its subject matter to fellow laypeople in terms they could understand. This book passes that test with ease.
