內容簡介

內容簡介 《大退潮》作者史帝芬．金恩2023最新作！ 當通膨避無可避，借鏡歷史因應惡性通膨 作者現為金融巨擘匯豐控股集團資深經濟顧問，同時也擔任英國國會下議院財政委員會專家顧問。他率先預警通膨飆升，並批評政策制定者往往選擇忽視通貨膨脹的歷史教訓。他在書中借鏡歷史，闡明國內通膨可能由外部衝擊觸發，但其消長不僅取決於外部衝擊的持續時間，也取決於貨幣主管機關的應對措施，唯有懷抱信心採取行動才可能會控制通貨膨脹。A FINANCIAL TIMES 'BOOK TO READ IN 2023'“Everything you wanted to know about inflation but were afraid to ask.”—Mervyn King""King's lessons command our attention.”—Lawrence H. Summers""Maybe you don’t think inflation is back for good. That is your right. But you’d be advised to read this book first.”—Stephanie FlandersA myth-busting explanation of inflation, the desperate gullibility of central bankers and finance ministers—and our abject failure to learn from historyFrom investors and monetary authorities to governments and policy makers, almost everyone had assumed inflation was dead and buried. But now people the world over are confronting a poisonous new economic reality and, with it, the prospect of vast and increasing wealth inequality.How have we arrived in this situation? And what, if anything, can we do about it?Celebrated economist Stephen D. King—one of the few to warn ahead of time about the latest inflationary upheaval—identifies key lessons from the history of inflation that policy makers chose not to heed. From ancient Rome through the American Civil War and up to the asset bubbles of today, inflation stems from policy error, sovereign greed, and a collective loss of faith in currencies.We Need to Talk About Inflation cuts through centuries of bad judgment and misunderstanding, offering a means to intervene now—so we can begin to tackle the political and social upheaval unleashed by inflation."
