Lords of Finance 2025 pdf epub mobi 电子书
本书主要是关于一战前后到二战前世界上美英法德四个国家的中央银行如何成立发展,并且其负责人相互交流,各自采取的货币政策、财政政策等一系列举措来进行经济上的同盟、制衡和博弈。如果说之前各国可以组建相关的顶尖俱乐部,现实生活中,那么谁又和谁站在了同一阵营。对...
评分文/严杰夫 2009年,周小川在央行网站上发表了一篇名为《关于国际货币体系改革的思考》的文章,在开篇的第一句,他就提到“什么样的国际储备货币才能保持全球金融稳定”。这个“古老而悬而未决”(周小川语)的问题,可以说是近代世界里,人类在每一次经济危机中都会追问的一个...
评分这本书是在金融博物馆的推荐书目,早就买了,主要是对金融完全不了解,纯粹是硬着头皮一点点的看。其实就是几个银行家如何在一战后那么困难的情况下,挽救自己国家的经济,虽然坚持金本是个错误的决定,好在最后力挽狂澜吧。。 话说有些名词还需要查查,百科居然好多信...
评分花了好几个晚上,终于把这本五百多页的书读完了。开始看很慢,很多的人名,官名和地名,有一些金融的专业术语,还需要一些基本的经济常识。不过后来慢慢就熟悉了,越看越快,像看小说一样。 整本书读下来,有一种荡气回肠的感觉。书主要是讲美英法德四国央行是如何建立起来,...

As the global economy is racked by its worst crisis since the Great Depression, there is a renewed interest in the lessons to be learned from the world economic collapse of the late 1920s. Drawing on his best-selling book, Lords of Finance: The Bankers Who Broke the World, noted author Liaquat Ahamed discusses the insights we can gain from the Great Depression about the forces that cause global financial crises, the similarities between the breaks down in the 1920s and the current meltdown and the actions economic officials need to take in order to reverse the downward spiral in the world economy and avoid a repeat of that cataclysm.
如果没看过House of Morgan,可能会觉得此书更好,因为太多的角色已经在Morgan里出现,因此使得整个故事的新意部分减分。而且,此书貌似有点脱节,即本来是讲一战对大萧条影响的,非要加入人物传记,而且有点主题先行的味道,因为Morgan没有提到的法国佬的确不重要。当然,两个主题书都写得不错:大萧条虽无新意,但脉络清晰,而人物则甚多轶事。所以虽非大家之作,仍然极有可读性。
评分没读,感觉是本无聊无用的书。
评分看完了。。。我觉得此书生动地体现了一股前几年很流行、但近来倍受唾弃的思潮,而我由于年纪尚幼(……)刚刚好错过了这股思潮的洗脑期。//一曲充满基情、八卦与狗血的central banker颂歌!
评分The Great Depression was not some act of God but the direct result of a series of misjudgements by economic policy makers, some made back in the 1920s, others after the first crises set in, namely the international debts of the Paris Conference and the ill-judged policies of major central bankers.
评分断断续续终于读完了。
