Charles Kindleberger

historian United States

Charles Kindleberger (1910-2003) was an influential American historian and economist best known for his work on international economics and the theory of hegemonic stability. He argued that global economic stability is best maintained when a single dominant power takes responsibility for providing public goods and enforcing rules. His insights into the role of the United States in the international system, particularly during the interwar period, highlighted the consequences of American isolationism and the resulting instability. Kindleberger's theories continue to be relevant in discussions about U.S. foreign policy and its implications for global order.
