第一,这个书读下来一个感觉:当欧洲金融的主导权落到法国人手中时候,的确不堪回首。美国的问题是过度投机,美国本性。欧洲很大的问题都是法国人的顽固和本能拯救时候的自私自利。比如1929年大萧条使得美国、英国和德国都面对严重问题时,法国做的是:1,在杨格计划讨论中坚持...
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...
评分买这本书的时候是2011年10月。转眼5年。期间读Margaret Olwen MacMillan的《Paris 1919》,去了布拉格、维也纳和布达佩斯旅行。站在华尔街的街角,这本书的封面闪在心头。 在很多人眼里,1900-1939这四十年的欧洲类似民国。名流云集,群星璀璨。看看午夜巴黎、亦或者布达佩斯...
评分小寒的第二天,北京下起了雪,不那么大,却也纷纷扬扬的。下雪天缩在屋里看大部头,最是惬意。 非常佩服那些传世的鸿篇巨著,开篇几句,就能把错综复杂的背景铺垫在你眼前,好像大画家那挥洒的笔墨,疏疏落落就给勾勒出一个画面来,让人一下子仿佛置身于那浩浩荡荡销烟滚滚的...
评分这是一部讲述一战后几个央行行长的故事。讲的有点琐碎,有点平铺直叙,没什么激情,读了一半就读不下去了,适合喜欢传记的人阅读。 不知道为什么大家这么推荐这本书。 怎么总提示,评论太短!!!!

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.
终于读完了!荡气回肠! 所有的人性的瑕疵,以及不可避免的群体性非理性,以及国家间的合纵连横都可以在战争和经济危机中一探究竟。 过段时间再写一下读后感。强烈推荐。 PS:我突然发现 热力学第二定律,《自私的基因》还有《Lords of Finance》之间有很大的相关性。
评分毫不犹豫给五星!兼具文采和专业性。
评分觉得里面的lords都靠不住。越看越担忧这次的欧债危机和中国银行业问题。
评分it's about bankers' role before and after US' 1929 great depression, precisely it illustrated how they shaped the world finance order to their benefits with diverse examples, most of them not necessarily first-hand or college sophomores studying economics don't have knowledge about, it probably won't improve your view about the business world
