The Political Economy of Overvaluation
The Economic Journal, 1989Most of the literature on political business cycles (e.g. Nordhaus, 1975; MacRae, 1977; van der Ploeg, I984) assumes that the incumbent political party attempts to secure re-election, by maximising the expected number of votes cast in its favour at the forthcoming election, and to exploit lags due to adaptive expectations.

Disorders with Overvalued Ideas
British Journal of Psychiatry, 1984SummaryThe overvalued idea, first described by Wernicke, refers to a solitary, abnormal belief that is neither delusional nor obsessional in nature, but which is preoccupying to the extent of dominating the sufferer's life.

Disinflation and Overvaluation
1998For the most part, currency crises are not accidents. They come at the tail-end of a disinflation strategy that has relied too heavily on the nominal exchange rate. The question is why policy-makers should run the risk of a currency collapse. The jury is still out, but the experiences of three countries reviewed here offer some ideas.

Overvaluation and earnings management
Journal of Banking & Finance, 2009Abstract Consistent with Jensen’s [Jensen, M., 2005. Agency costs of overvalued equity.

The mysterious overvaluation of KRW in the 1990s
The Pacific Review, 2016Existing theories on real exchange rates predict a significant undervaluation of the Korean won (KRW) in the early and mid-1990s. For instance, given the historical importance of exporting sectors in the Korean economy, the optimum currency area (OCA) literature would postulate that massive current account deficits in the mid-1990s should have led to ...

The belief is often relished, amplified, and defended by the possessor of the belief and should be differentiated from a delusion or obsession. Over time, the belief grows more dominant, more refined, and more resistant to challenge. The individual
