Beschreibung
The upcoming BRICS summit is just around the corner. The five BRICS nations are reportedly planning their own gold-based reserve currency. This rumor gains traction due to several events. Firstly, the world is currently undergoing structural changes. NATO's expansion towards the east and north in Europe continues, with Sweden currently on the agenda. Sweden boasts one of the largest gold reserves globally. An immediate consequence of NATO's eastward expansion is the military conflicts in Ukraine. Russia has been excluded from the SWIFT system. This exclusion means that Russian banks can no longer directly communicate with other international banks for cross-border transactions. Without access to the SWIFT network, Russia is cut off from most international payment and settlement systems. This could complicate trade with other countries and impact economic relationships. Such isolation could destabilize Russian financial markets and erode investor confidence. The exclusion from the SWIFT system is a serious measure and is to be understood as a political leverage. However, whether his visit can dissuade China and the BRICS countries from their financial plans remains to be seen. Russia and China are among the top four countries globally in terms of gold purchases. My book, "The US Dollar and the BRICS Challenge," aims to bring readers closer to the history of dollar dominance and the emerging BRICS nations as potential counterbalances. It should be seen as an attempt to shed light on current events in the world and help better understand ongoing upheavals and restructuring. The book delves into the backgrounds that have led to the power struggles of our time and offers insights into a possible future, analyzing the implications for the global economy. The various aspects of the topic are explored, starting from the historical events that led to the emergence of dollar dominance, all the way to the current efforts of the BRICS nations to break free from this dominance and strengthen their own positions. We will examine the roots of dollar dominance, covering key milestones from the 1944 Bretton Woods Conference to the abandonment of the gold standard in 1971. The crucial role of the United States as a superpower and its economic and political interests in maintaining dollar dominance will also be scrutinized.
