This project aimed to make clear the founding process of the floating exchange system, in relation to the roles played by international financial institutions as well as the function of international monetary market, as follows : (1) to investigate the structural features of three interest groups, the United States, European countries and Japan, in the decision making process to build up the floating exchange system, (2) to shed lights on contemporary political alternatives, as "maintaining the fixed rate system", and (3) to reconstitute activities of international financial institutions and international monetary markets as "forums" where historical decisions took place, after non-published historical archives.
