Seth: "And why would a devaluation be good for US hegemony over the long term, as some have said here?"
This doesn't entirely answer the question,but i think it's pretty related, pretty close:
'It is rather the case that a new ideology of the market (and of market access is being embedded in and reproduced by a powerful constituency of liberal states, international institutions, and what may be called the 'circuits of capital' themselves.'
