According to Barkawi and Laffey, "The Black Atlantic is situated in the histories of imperialism and the international relations of hierarchy to which we seek to draw attention.

The IMF currency reserve units are called Special Drawing Rights (SDRs); from 1974 to 1980 the value of SDRs was based on the currencies of 16 leading trading nations. Since 1980 it has been reevaluated every five years and based on the relative international economic importance of the British pound sterling, the European Union euro (formerly the French franc and German mark), the Japanese yen, and the U.S. Dollar."
