«Tobin or not Tobin» is the economic essay by François Chesnais, published by L'Esprit Frappeur in paperback (86 pages, in French).
It analyses economist James Tobin's proposal to tax currency transactions to reduce volatility and curb speculation. The debate reopens with the financial crises in Asia and Latin America and the IMF's failures in the 1990s. The essay examines whether the tax is viable and whether it would suffice to regulate international finance.
The cover adds the subtitle «Une taxe internationale sur le capital». James Tobin, Nobel laureate in Economics, proposed the Tobin tax in the 1970s.
For readers interested in international economics and debates on financial regulation.
