Abstract

The existing balances on the current accounts of the major industrialised countries have given rise to demands, addressed particularly to German economic policy-makers, which amount to a revitalisation of the “locomotive theory”. However, were the world economy once more to be “reflated” in accordance with the “locomotive theory”, there would be a danger that the improvements in stability which have been attained would be sacrificed without actually solving the pressing international economic problems.
