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.
finally done after sitting on my reading list since 12/02/2017. To start right before WWI creates the right suspense. Several themes cleverly threaded: gold balance concentration (reminiscent of BTC decentralization debate?), GB deflation vs DE devaluation, reparation vs war debt, FR book-cooking scandal, DE external debt, US stock bubble, etc.
評分覺得裏麵的lords都靠不住。越看越擔憂這次的歐債危機和中國銀行業問題。
評分如果沒看過House of Morgan,可能會覺得此書更好,因為太多的角色已經在Morgan裏齣現,因此使得整個故事的新意部分減分。而且,此書貌似有點脫節,即本來是講一戰對大蕭條影響的,非要加入人物傳記,而且有點主題先行的味道,因為Morgan沒有提到的法國佬的確不重要。當然,兩個主題書都寫得不錯:大蕭條雖無新意,但脈絡清晰,而人物則甚多軼事。所以雖非大傢之作,仍然極有可讀性。
評分Great book about the central bankers from World War I to Great Depression.
評分覺得裏麵的lords都靠不住。越看越擔憂這次的歐債危機和中國銀行業問題。
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!!!!
評分主要讲了一战结束后,欧洲的创伤,美国的勃兴,对德国的严厉制裁,欧美间巨大的差距,以及一些政治、金融的动荡引发了1929开始的大萧条。其间金融业四巨头也有很大的作用,一些人墨守成规,一些人政治投机,抑或纯粹失误,加剧了危机。随后的三十年代美国在萧条中加强了政府和F...

評分小寒的第二天,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...
