Many barriers to the international movement of capital across national boundaries have been dismantled over the course of the last 20 years. Financial integration was greatly enhanced by the removal of capital controls on the part of the United States, Germany, Canada, Switzerland, and the Netherlands after 1973; the recycling of surpluses to developing countries through the Euromarkets in the 1970's; the removal of capital controls in the United Kingdom and Japan beginning in 1979; financial integration among European Community countries, including France and Italy, in preparation for 1992; recent moves toward financial liberalization in smaller countries in the Pacific; and the steady process of technical and institutional innovation that has proceeded around the world. Some popular tests of international capital mobility, however, appear to show anomalous results. Martin Feldstein and Charles Horioka upset conventional wisdom in 1980 when they concluded that changes in countries' rates of national saving had very large effects on their rates of investment and interpreted this finding as evidence of low capital mobility. The argument

While Harriet Taylor Mill's work on feminist economics has only recently begun to receive the attention it deserves, one can hardly say that she was earlier ignored: for more than a century, debate has raged over the extent and nature of her influence on John Stuart Mill. The debate was provoked by Mill himself, who used quite extravagant language in describing his wife and her contributions to his work.1 The following example is from his Autobiography (J. S. Mill, 1873 [1965 p. 251]), completed after Harriet's death and published only after his own:

[Survey data provide a measure of exchange rate expectations superior to the forward rate in that no risk premium interferes. We estimate extrapolative, adaptive, and regressive models of expectations. Static or "random walk" expectations and bandwagon expectations are rejected: current appreciation generates the expectation of future depreciation because variables other than the contemporaneous spot rate receive weight. In comparing expectations to the process governing the spot rate, we find statistically significant bias.]
