China's Financial Innovation through History

中国历史上的金融创新

Co-hosted by Princeton University Press, Yale Beijing Center and Yale Club 

本次活动由普林斯顿大学出版社、耶鲁北京中心与耶鲁北京校友会联合举办。

Event Description/活动简介

Professor William N.Getzomann will talk on China's financial innovation through history and his book Money Changes Everything. Published in 2016 by Princeton University Press, the book was one of Bloomberg's Best Books of 2016 and one of Financial Times (FT.com) Best Economics Books of 2016.

In his book, he shows how finance was present at key moments in history: driving the invention of writing in ancient Mesopotamia, spurring the classical civilizations of Greece and Rome to become great empires, determining the rise and fall of dynasties in imperial China, and underwriting the trade expeditions that led Europeans to the New World. He also demonstrates how the apparatus we associate with a modern economy—stock markets, lines of credit, complex financial products, and international trade—were repeatedly developed, forgotten, and reinvented over the course of human history.

William N.Goetzmann教授将就“中国历史上的金融创新”和他的新书《Money Changes Everything》进行主题演讲。本书由普林斯顿大学出版社出版于2016年，曾获得《金融时报》以及美国彭博年度商业书籍。

Goetzmann教授在书中展示了金融如何在历史上的关键时刻起到作用。例如，金融推动古代美索不达米亚文字的发明，促使希腊和罗马的古典文明成为伟大的帝国，决定中国封建王朝的兴衰，也为欧洲人到新世界的贸易探索活动提供保障。作者还向我们展示了那些常常与现代经济联系在一起的机制——股票市场，信用额度，复杂的金融产品和国际贸易——如何在人类历史的进程中被不断地发展、遗忘、和重新创造。
