 Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis-The Region -Interview with Anne Krueger December 2002)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
KRUEGER: What I'm suggesting is that we haven't in human history had very many economies that have been built up on the command and control principle that then had to be dismantled.
KRUEGER: Well, I think more and more people are coming to the conclusion that the fixed exchange rate, where you just change the exchange rate when it's no longer permitting a viable balance of payments, is no longer the way to go.
KRUEGER: Well, I mean there is knowledge that permits intelligent consumption and all that, but even there, there's a bit of economics, as you and I both know, that needs to be known.

 World Bank President: Krueger push factor.
Krueger was formerly World Bank chief economist during some of the Reagan structural adjustment years.
Krueger must still be considered unlikely, partly because of her age which would rule her out from serving two terms.
But perhaps more because it is not clear why the Bush administration would want to reward Krueger with the plum World Bank position, having already placed her in the IMF's number 2 post during the first Bush term.

 Anne Krueger and Jungho Yoo
Anne Krueger, one of the world experts on Korea, has joined forces with Jungho Yoo to understand the factors leading to the financial crisis of late 1997.
Krueger and Yoo coin the elegant phrase of an "export theory of value" held by Korean policymakers over the last four decades, illustrating the power of export-led growth over import-substituting industrialization.
Anne´s Stanford colleague Ron McKinnon (1973) pointed out, however, that financial development was often neglected in the assessment of experiences of export-led growth, which often focused on trade in goods and services rather than in assets.

 International Relations Center | Commentary | The Resurgence of the Washington Consensus
Krueger served as vice president of economics and research at the World Bank from 1982 to 1986.
These appointments, and Krueger's in particular, illustrate three elements of the Bush administration's approach to foreign economic policy in general, and the IMF in particular.
Krueger's reform proposals will tend more toward tinkering than an overhaul, and will encourage the Fund to focus on crisis management and efforts to reform countries' financial systems in ways that facilitate capital flows and strengthen the private sector.

 AEI - Short Publications
Anne Krueger, first deputy managing director at the International Monetary Fund, noted that real Chinese gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 9.7 percent annually between 1990 and 2003.
The Chinese success story has lifted tens of millions of Chinese out of poverty yet, as Krueger cautioned, China is still markedly poorer than its neighbors and has a relatively low per-capita income even after a doubling in the last decade or so.
Few economists believe that China's current pace of growth is sustainable, and both Krueger and Randal Quarles, assistant secretary for international affairs at the U.S. Treasury, emphasized the need for structural reforms in China's banking system to decrease non- performing loans and overinvestment as part of a longer-term strategy.

 ROCKEFELLER OPPOSES NOMINATION OF STEEL INDUSTRY FOE ANNE KRUEGER TO COUNCIL OF ECONOMIC ADVISORS
The Council of Economic Advisors, for which Krueger has been nominated, is expected to weigh in heavily on the final decision by the Bush Administration of whether or not to initiate a Section 201 investigation.
From what I understand, Professor Krueger has demonstrated through her writings and associations that she is biased not only against the domestic steel industry, but against the legitimacy of our trade remedy laws in general.
Professor Krueger’s denigrating remarks about domestic steel are not constructive and are contrary to the Administration’s repeated pronouncements to members of the steel community that the President recognizes the extent of the steel crisis.

We wanted to wait a few days to see the reactions to the statement of Anne Krueger, first deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, that the minimum wage in Turkey is too high and should be reduced.
Krueger should realize that the real problem in Turkey is not the minimum wage but high insurance premiums.
Krueger has to realize that Turks feel their resources are being drained, and that the poor are getting poorer.

Andrew Berg and Anne Krueger present a review of an abundant literature, showing that there is a link between trade liberalization and poverty reduction that works mainly through the growth-inducing effects of trade.
Based in part on the literature reviewed by Berg and Krueger, Alan Winters develops the liberalization elements that the Doha Development Round should achieve if it is to reduce poverty.
Therefore, in contrast to the article by Berg and Krueger, the emphasis in the discussion offered by Winters is on multilateral trade liberalization.
