Great day @CERatGWU and thanks @twilliams8 for hosting me!
On 11/19 our Macro-International Seminar hosted @WillWitheridge (UMD) presenting “The Exchange Rate as an Industrial Policy.” The paper shows how undervalued exchange rates can raise growth in converging economies, with strong evidence from China’s takeoff. #EconTwitter
