Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine Fritz Machlup’s method and use of scenario
analysis in the policy discussions around exchange rate solutions to balance of payments problems.
Design/methodology/approach – The qualitative research on which this paper is based is the
sociohistorical biographical approach, based on a close examination of published works and archival
materials.
Findings – What makes Machlup unique is his focus on the impact to an economic system of discrete
human actions, each set of actions associated with a change in exchange rate policy and the operations
and institutions necessary to implement it. Impact on the system was evaluated in terms of three
values – balance of payments adjustment, liquidity and confidence. In his use of a system’s approach,
his focus on change and adjustment to change, and most particularly his focus on human action,
Machlup is also distinctively Austrian.
Research limitations/implications – This is the first paper generated from the author’s far larger
planned study of Fritz Machlup and the Bellagio Group.
Practical implications – The collaborative exploration of alternative futures by senior teams has
become increasingly important to strategic planning by governments and corporations.
Originality/value – The story of the Fritz Machlup’s contribution to exchange rate regimes,
international trade and the balance of payments has remained largely untold.
Keywords Exchange rate mechanisms, Monetary policy, Balance of payments, International economics
Paper type Research paper
Nearly a half-century before the financial crisis of 2008, there was another time when
reforming the world monetary system was on everyone’s lips and many academics and
policy makers were developing and attempting to promote plans for its reconstruction
before illiquidity, speculation and loss of confidence brought the system to a predicted
ruin. This paper examines Fritz Machlup’s contribution to exchange rate regimes,
international trade and the balance of payments during the 1960s, a story that remains
largely untold. The paper begins with a brief review of the scenario analysis literature,
focusing on the role of Austrian economists in its development and importance to
strategic planning (first section) and then discusses Fritz Machlup’s background and
Journal of Management History methodology (second section). The historical context and politics of balance of payments

price of gold and the theory of foreign exchanges, all three of which were reprinted in
International Payments, Debts and Gold (Machlup, 1964b). While Machlup has generally
been classified as a “neoclassical” economist, Langlois and Koppl (1991) and Koppl
(1992) have positioned Machlup far from the neoclassical mainstream. While a key
problem for Machlup, as for Mises (1936) and Hayek (1945) and others in the Austrian
tradition, was how economic actors adapt to unanticipated change, Machlup’s
unconventional version of marginalism produces a process story appropriate for
analyzing adjustment to exogenous change using a four-step adjustment model in which
steps 1 (initial equilibrium) and 4 (final equilibrium) are methodological devices in a
mental experiment designed to analyze causal connections between a disturbing change
(step 2) and an adjusting change (step 3). To verify that a disturbing change has
produced the predicted or desired adjusting change, Machlup designed a mental
“machine” to put the predicted results to empirical test (Machlup, 1978, p. 143). While the
model consists of many parts, all of which represent assumptions or hypotheses of
different degrees of generality, the so-called fundamental assumptions are a fixed part of
the machine; they cannot be changed without changing the character of the machine.
All other parts are exchangeable (Machlup, 1978, p. 148)[2]. The exchangeable parts of
Machlup’s model are a series of disturbing (inputs) and adjusting (outputs) changes
caused by a sequence of individual actions and reactions that must be explained or
accounted for in terms of the knowledge, preferences and expectations of the individuals
doing the acting. Hence, the knowledge, preferences and expectations of the actors must
provide sufficient cause for their actions and seem reasonable and understandable in
commonsense terms (Koppl, 1992, p. 303). In the conferences Machlup would organize
around balance of payments problems and exchange rate regimes, causal connections
between disturbing changes (change in exchange rate regime, in this case) and adjusting
changes (effect on payments balance/imbalance, liquidity increase/decrease and
confidence increase/decrease) would become essential to a comparison and evaluation of
the viability of the alternative exchange rate systems under discussion.
asset – gold – was in the control of a handful of countries, and a primary one, Russia,
was outside the system entirely. When sterling was deemed less than fully convertible in
1947, the US$ was left as the sole reserve currency or currency accepted for international
payments. With the USA running persistent deficits, the entire balance-of-payments
system was inherently unstable. The USA and Europe shared a common fear: because
central bankers could cash in dollars for gold at any time, one day the ratio of dollar
liabilities to American-held gold might increase to a level that might cause a loss of
foreign confidence in the dollar and a run on the US Treasury gold window (Greider,
1987). American and European policy makers shared a common history: the global
recession turned depression had unleashed monetary chaos and devaluations, which
unleashed beggar-thy-neighbor policies and economic nationalism, which produced
dictatorships, which unleashed world war (Gavin, 2004, p. 14).
Ever since 1950, the USA, through its purchases, investments (direct and indirect
foreign direct investment), loans and aid, had put at the disposal of foreign countries
more dollars than these countries had used for their purchases in the USA. US Presidents
Dwight Eisenhower, John F Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson considered US payments
deficits a problem as critical to US security as the nuclear threat. Kennedy calculated
that US payments deficit in 1962 was equal to the cost of maintaining US troops in
Europe and weighed the advantages of eliminating the deficit by recalling the troops or
negotiating with the French as the USA had with Germany to pay for the troops via
US armaments purchases, thus allowing the USA to use the cash received to retire the
deficit. Cold War Presidents were concerned that the Soviet Union might pursue an
alliance with Germany or that France might pursue an alliance with Germany, pushing
the USA out of European affairs. Along with some European colleagues, US policy
makers and economists more than happy to exchange the dominant reserve currency
position for a basket of reserve currencies backed by gold. Others wanted to eliminate
gold completely and set exchange rates free to float (Solomon, 1977).
Four major exchange rate policy alternatives emerged, each with its advocates.
The multiple currency approach, first introduced by Friedich Lutz of the University of
Zurich, would have replaced the dollar as reserve currency with a basket of currencies,
each convertible to gold on request. At the same time, others were suggesting that a
semi-automatic gold standard should replace the current gold-exchange regime. Jacques
Rueff, close advisor to French President Charles de Gaulle, believed that international
deviation from the gold standard was behind the global financial meltdown. In 1961,
he encouraged de Gaulle to take steps to end the dollar’s role as an international reserve
currency. Similarly, Michael Heilperin, a professor at the Graduate Institute of
International Studies in Geneva, proposed a “managed” form of gold standard (just as
the pre-1914 standard had been a system of managed gold-linked currencies). In two
phases, the plan called for nations to pay all future external deficits on current account
in gold, and later doubling the price of gold to $70 per ounce. Increasing gold’s price
JMH was also the basis of a proposal to “fix” Bretton Woods by Sir Roy Harrod of Oxford
17,1 University. Unlike Rueff and Heilperin, he did not propose to eliminate existing dollar
(and sterling) balances from official monetary reserves, but contended that doubling the
price of gold would raise reserves by $40 billion and allow participating countries to
expand domestic credit in pursuit of higher growth and full employment.
Among those taking a broader view altogether – the creation of a world central bank

multiplying the capacity of the world monetary system – were, of course, John Maynard
Keynes and Robert Triffin of Yale. Keynes had called for the creation of an International
Clearing Union and a new international currency, while Triffin supported an extended
role for the IMF as central banker, acting not as the lender of last resort but as guarantor.
Finally, a fourth policy scheme proposed a system of flexible or “floating” rates,
adjusting to market conditions. Harry Johnson of the University of Chicago focused on
the threat to international liquidity by the conversion of national currencies into gold at a
fixed rate, and the reality that gold supplies were insufficient to meet the demands of the
monetary authorities to increase their holdings. Richard Caves, Milton Friedman,
Gottfried Haberler, Albert Hahn, George Halm, Friedrich Lutz, James E. Meade and
Egon Sohnen were among those making similar arguments.
Fritz Machlup’s goal was to bring together several of the economists whose plans on
international monetary reform had been widely discussed – especially those with
notoriously divergent views – to consider the assumptions underlying their plans and
the impact of those plans on payments adjustment, liquidity and confidence. In fact,
while all of the economists invited to participate in the series of conferences Machlup
planned were academic economists, nearly all were former members of the International
Monetary Fund, Bank of International Settlements, Organization of Economically
Developed Countries, Federal Reserve – or were advisors to the heads of their national
governments (Table I).
The Bellagio Group conferences: origins, process and ground rules for
scenarios, the scenarios and their lessons
Origins
The idea for series of conferences exploring the impact on payments adjustment,
liquidity and confidence came to Fritz Machlup and his colleagues Robert Triffin and
William Fellner as they sat at a press conference called by the Annual Meeting of the
World Monetary Fund in Washington, DC on October 2, 1963. Then Secretary of the
Treasury and a Governor of the International Monetary Fund Douglas Dillon announced
at the launching of two studies on “the outlook for the functioning of the international
monetary system,” one to be undertaken by government economists of the Group of Ten;
the other study was to be made by International Monetary Fund economists. As
“academic economists” whose potential contribution was being ignored, Machlup,
Fellner and Triffin felt challenged to embark on a study themselves, involving
economists who had widely divergent views, with no problem or proposal considered
“out of bounds” (Machlup, 1964a, p. 6). Funds for an initial series of four conferences
were donated by the Ford and Rockefeller Foundations.
The first conference was described by Machlup as an experiment designed to
isolate the assumptions underlying the major policy recommendations to determine
where the policies diverged. With only ten members and five observers, this conference

one under consideration? What are the essential arrangements which characterize the
system? What are some of the necessary conditions for the system to work in the intended
fashion? What potential modifications to the system might you make? The lists of
assumptions concerning the four systems were uniformly organized under headings
roughly corresponding to the questions posed above so that they could be compared by
all the economists attending.
Lessons
Advocates of the four major policy proposals – semi-automatic gold standard,
centralized international reserves, multiple currency reserves and flexible exchange
rates found they shared assumptions about the prevailing gold standard, holding it
unsustainable because since it required a progressive increase in the ratio of the liquid
liabilities of reserve-currency countries to their gold holdings which threatened the value
of the reserve holdings of other countries, undermining confidence in the stability of the
system.
Advocates of centralizing international reserves and replacing a single reserve
currency with multiple currency reserves (disturbing changes) policies found that their
shared assumption, gold-exchange standard in the one instance and semi-automatic
gold standard in the other, were based on the same haphazard approach to gold
production and did not ensure against excessive or deficient holdings, leading to
liquidity problems (adjusting change). They also shared the assumption that, under
existing and foreseeable circumstances, the adjustment mechanism would fail to work
fast enough to enable countries to finance their deficits with available international
reserves and borrowing facilities (adjusting change), with the result that satisfactory
growth of world trade and capital movements could not be reconciled with full
employment and stable prices (adjusting change). While in all other respects the policies
diverged in terms of arrangements, institutions and operations, centralized reserves and
multiple currencies advocates were in complete agreement that domestic and
international stability were mutually dependent on full employment, stable prices,
responsible adjustment with inflation/deflation depending on surplus/deficit country
status and avoidance of tariffs/trade controls.
Further, the comparison of the four scenarios and the systems effects of their
underlying assumptions encouraged economists to reach consensus on the requirements
for any acceptable exchange rate regime (Machlup, 1964a, pp. 101-2):
.
Because balance of payments disturbances differ substantially in source and
duration, the differences between them necessitate different responses.
.
Persistent adjustments of payments imbalances should be initiated promptly
with the smallest loss of income and employment and, to this end, interim
financing should be available.
.
The financing of reversible disturbances requires the use of official reserves and Reforming
reserves should be expanded to meet needs. the world
.
The protection of the large outstanding foreign-exchange component of the monetary system
world reserve pool against sudden or massive conversion into gold should be a
high priority.
.
There was broad consensus on the importance of exchange rate change as a
preferred method of adjustment. 59

of the dollar-gold relationship. Professor Harry Johnson responded that there were two
systems to consider: one in which gold is the numeraire and other currencies move,
perhaps in terms of a key currency, but finally with respect to gold; and two, without gold
or any non-currency numeraire. Stephen Marris of OECD and Robert Roosa of Brown
Brothers Harriman then suggested the group assume first that the discussion be based on
a continuation of the fixed gold-dollar relationship; later, the group could consider the
implications of relaxing the assumption.
Fritz Machlup intervened to limit the scope of the problem: our task is to try to find an
international currency technology which could improve the present degree of rate
stability. Machlup then suggested that the group begin a series of individual opening
comments, beginning with the bankers and businessmen, in alphabetical order.
George Chittenden argued that he would vote for maintaining the system as is, having
served world trade and investment well thus far. The only missing ingredient, in his view,
was the lack of sufficient pressure on governments to accept the discipline of the system
when its signals were contrary to domestic political desire. Disagreeing with Chittenden’s
claim that the current system was working well, IBM’s Chief Economist David Grove said
that the present resistance by officials to change had led to interventions, political
stresses between countries and controls with more frequent and more disruptive crises,
followed by illiberal controls. Seconding dissatisfaction with the present system,
Dr Holtrop of Nederlandsche Bank noted that pressures to make appropriate internal
corrections or to change the currency rate seemed to be stronger and more effective
during times of crisis than during times of surplus, hence the system is asymmetrical.
that economists had taken for years as given its imminence of collapse and, therefore,
now accepted as undeniable the need for major reform in the present structure.
After some discussion about the politics of arguing effectively for modification of the
present system, Fred Bergsten introduced a detailed summary of the headings which the
group had discussed to date. The method of assigning papers to be presented at the next
conference was then discussed. Conference attendees made their choice of topic,
committing themselves to the research and preparation necessary. The conference
papers prepared by Burgenstock members were presented and discussed at a follow-up
conference in Burgenstock Switzerland. Both papers and comments were collected into a
volume published by Princeton University Press in 1970 as Approaches to Greater
Flexibility of Exchange Rates: The Burgenstock Papers, edited by George Halm.
Understanding the potential impact they had on public policy, a number of the
practitioner conferees (David Grove, Max Ikle, Tadashi Iino, Ake Lundgren and
Donald Marsh) sought also to publish versions of their work in professional journals.
By the time the conference ended, the conferees had arrived at an unexpected consensus
on smaller and more frequent exchange rate changes by widening the range within
which exchange rates respond to market forces and permitting a more continuous and
gradual adjustment of parities.

2. Machlup’s “fixed part of the machine” is strikingly similar to Imre Lakatos’ “hard core” of
scientific research programs (Langlois and Koppl, 1991, p. 88). Here, the purpose of the model
is to provide an “invisible hand,” a genetic explanation of a process, involving social (rather
than natural) phenomena, that unfolds in time. The story provides a plausible mechanism
whereby the displaced activities of individuals aiming at particular ends, and not at the
phenomenon in question, nevertheless result in the occurrence of the phenomenon (Koppl,
1992, p. 295).

conference center in Bellagio, Lake Como, Italy.
