"Currency Unions" reviews the traditional case for flexible exchange rates and "countercyclical"--that is, expansionary during recessions and contractionary in booms--monetary policy, and shows how flexible exchange rate regimes can better insulate the economy from such real disturbances as terms-of-trade shocks.
