by Jamil Mahuad (Author)

El expresidente Mahuad y un grupo de sus más cercanos colaboradores narran por primera vez los entretelones de esta decisión que surgió en medio de un clima de urgencia.


El 10 de enero de 2000 el Ecuador económico amaneció en calma. Las largas colas en los bancos desaparecieron y las tasas de interés se desplomaron. El día anterior, Jamil Mahuad Witt, entonces presidente de la República, anunció de manera oficial la dolarización de la economía ecuatoriana, poniendo fin a una larga tormenta perfecta económica con crisis devaluatoria --que había llegado a una tasa de cambio de 28.000 sucres por dólar estadounidense--, fuga de capitales y brotes hiperinflacionarios.

La dolarización partió en un antes y un después la historia económica del Ecuador, aunque enfrentó críticas de opositores, provocando un golpe de Estado 12 días después del anuncio.

El relato que hace de los hechos el expresidente --que ocupa la primera parte de este volumen y constituye un nuevo tipo de memoria histórico-política-- y los ensayos de su equipo son una lectura indispensable para entender la historia reciente del Ecuador y constituyen un valioso aporte a la reflexión en América Latina sobre las dificultades de gobernar en momentos de crisis.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Former President Mahuad and a group of his closest collaborators narrate, for the first time, the behind-the-scenes of a decision made under a climate of urgency.


On January 10, 2000, Ecuador's economy awoke to calm. The long lines at banks vanished, and interest rates plummeted. The day before, Jamil Mahuad Witt, then President of the Republic, officially announced the dollarization of Ecuador's economy, putting an end to a long economic perfect storm marked by a currency devaluation crisis--reaching an exchange rate of 28,000 sucres per U.S. dollar--capital flight, and bursts of hyperinflation.

Dollarization marked a turning point in Ecuador's economic history, although it faced criticism from opponents, triggering a coup d'état 12 days after the announcement.

The account given by the former president--featured in the first part of this volume and representing a new kind of historical-political memoir--along with essays by his team, offer a must-read for understanding Ecuador's recent history and provide a valuable contribution to Latin America's ongoing reflection on the challenges of governing in times of crisis.
