Abstract

[eng] Chinese Surpluses and American Deficits : A Change in Global Imbalance.. Imbalances between the U. S. and China are in three areas : monetary, trade and economy. Two fundamentally different types of economy are the cause of all other imbalances. International trade and foreign investment (flows of goods and capital) transform these differences in trade surplus for China. In reality, a war of currencies between China and the U. S. would be a superficial conflict that hides deeper structural differences between the two economies. International trade transforms them into a quantitative monetary disequilibrium, which is much easier to observe. Today the situation of the United States requires as many internal changes as for his new competitor : China. However, the real challenge is to find out solutions domestically rather than internationally. . Classification JEL : F02, F31, J61, P25. [fre] Les déséquilibres entre les États-Unis et la Chine se situent sur trois plans : monétaire, commercial et économique. Deux types d’économie fondamentalement différents sont à l’origine de tous les autres déséquilibres. Le commerce international et l’investissement étranger (flux de biens et de capitaux) transforment ces différences en excédent commercial pour la Chine. En réalité, une guerre des monnaies entre la Chine et les États-Unis cache des différences structurelles plus profondes entre les deux économies. Le commerce international les transforme en un déséquilibre monétaire quantitativement observable. Aujourd’hui la situation des États-Unis requiert autant de changements internes que pour son nouveau rival, la Chine. Les véritables solutions seront domestiques plutôt qu’internationales. . Classification JEL : F02, F31, J61, P25.
