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.
Liaquat Ahamed has been a professional investment manager for twenty-five years. He has worked at the World Bank in Washington, D.C., and the New York-based partnership of Fischer Francis Trees and Watts, where he served as chief executive. He is currently an adviser to several hedge fund groups, including the Rock Creek Group and the Rohatyn Group, is a director of Aspen Insurance Co., and is on the board of trustees of the Brookings Institution. He has degrees in economics from Harvard and Cambridge universities.
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...
评分第三帝国的兴起与第二次大战的起源 为了对抗一个共同的敌人而缔结的战争同盟,总是注定了会短命的,因为一旦这个敌人被击败了之后,同盟的重心也就随之而毁灭了。很少有理由可以假定赢得第一次世界大战的英美法三国之间的协约,能够比勒班陀海战以后的神圣同盟或是滑铁卢...
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!!!!
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,...

应该和货币战争捆绑着卖,更能显示出宋大师的图样拿衣服
评分拿起来就放不下……
评分Great book about the central bankers from World War I to Great Depression.
评分Great book about the central bankers from World War I to Great Depression.
评分如果没看过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。
