Abstract

The trilemma or impossible trinity in open economies was introduced by Mundell and Fleming in the 1960s. The trilemma hypothesis asserts that an economy cannot simultaneously maintain a fixed exchange rate, free capital movement, and an independent monetary policy. A stable exchange rate supports foreign investments, because strong exchange rate volatility represents a risk for their returns. Unrestricted capital mobility is important to attract foreign investments and ensures optimal allocation of resources. Finally, with an independent monetary policy, policy makers are able to attend to domestic economic matters by additional instruments. Although all three of these goals are potentially beneficial for a country’s economy, the macroeconomic trilemma implies that governments can only combine two of them. In other words one has to be given up. The purpose of the paper is to explain the trilemma concept and how this trilemma problem has been resolved under different monetary regimes; i.e., Gold Standard, Bretton Woods system and Post Bretton Woods period, and trilemma configuration of the Turkish economy.
