Currency crises have occurred frequently in the post-war era. In this article we review the literature on the causes and consequences of currency crises. First- generation models attribute a central role to fiscal policy as a fundamental determinant of crises. Second-generation models emphasize the possibility of selffulfilling speculative attacks and multiple equilibria. Third-generation models stress how financial fragility can lead to currency crises.
