You may also want to check Henry C.K. Liu's writings at the Asia Times web site for an interesting view on money and credit. As I recall he has a personal web site as well but I do not recall the address. Michael Hudson's book entitled "Super Imperialism" may also be useful, particularly for the period from WWII to this day.
