Crisis of international liquidity and disintegration of Bretton-Woods monetary system
 Sekerešová, Zuzana ; Durčáková, Jaroslava (advisor) ; Čermáková, Daniela (referee)
The thesis analyses the main reasons that caused disintegration of Bretton-Woods international monetary system. The United States played a significant role within this system whose long-range deficit of the balance of payments weakened the position of US dollar like major world currency and thereby the stability of entire system. By cancelling of the direct convertibility of the US dollar to gold in 1971 was broken one of the basic principles of Bretton-Woods system what meant its ultimate end. Another important factor participating in crash of that monetary system is crisis of international liquidity. The problem of insufficient international liquidity was developed by slow tempo of growth of foreign exchange reserves in relation to international trade. The shortage of foreign exchange reserves menaced continuity of international system of payments and thereby development of world trade. Despite the hastened solution of the problem of liquidity by emission of new reserve unit SDR it was impossible to avert the collapse of Bretton-Woods system.
