内容简介:
《巨人》对美国的帝国之路作了深刻独到的讲解,作者的笔墨涉及美国自成立至今全部外事纷争,并从各种角度——军事、经济、文化与政治——对美国权力阶层作了深入分析。书中论点独到新颖、令人信服,但又发人深省。在《巨人》中,作者认为美国一直以来拒绝承认自己是一个帝国,同时在书中展示了美国式帝国主义的致命后果。作者也探讨了对美国霸权构成主要挑战的竞争者——欧盟与中国;但也许最重要的是,《巨人》对美国国内经济发展与其外交事务间的内在关系作了出色分析,而这正是美式帝国主义中最重要的两点。《巨人》对美国权力的分析堪称同类书中的佼佼者,任何对这个拒不承认自己帝国角色的国家感兴趣的读者都应将《巨人》列为其必读书目。

prime33682022-10-31基本可视为《帝国》的姊妹篇,作者期望美国成为英国自由帝国主义的继承。尼尔.弗格森分析了美帝国相比英国的三个基本的缺陷及:经济上的缺陷、人力上的缺陷以及三者中最严重的一个问题,即注意力难以持久的缺陷,这也是美帝国自我否定、自我矛盾之所在。美国不可能采取官方式的帝国主义政策,美国也缺乏英国式的总督自愿为美帝国的扩展而“自我奉献”的人力,但美国人扛起的自由民主大旗却总是逼的美国无帝国之心却行帝国之实,虽然世界大部分正常人都是欢迎美国的直接统治的,但美国人主动与帝国主义标签的切割使得美国无法建立英式殖民,也经常在推翻邪恶国家后转身离开留下秩序真空,美式自由因而难以在美军占领地开花。因此,结合03年的写作背景,尼尔·弗格森通过对英国在埃及的帝国统治分析,也是间接为美国如何接管伊拉克给出经验和教训。

Kevin Lee2021-05-21There are two reasons why such calls are ill advised, to say the least. The first, to repeat, is that a dollar devaluation would have grave implications for Chinese financial institutions, many of which hold their reserves in dollars but have renminbi-denominated assets. The consequence could be deflation spreading throughout the Chinese economy.61 The second reason is that anti-Chinese measures would hurt American firms, a growing number of which are investing directly in China to exploit its combination of cheap but relatively good-quality labor in an apparently stable institutional setting. Foreign direct investment in China now totals around 40 percent of Chinese GDP, a level of Western participation in the Chinese economy not seen since the era of the imperial Open Door.Low long-ter...

Kevin Lee2021-05-21Given that domestic political gridlock will surely lead to a stream of deficits in the coming decades, a great deal depends on whether or not foreign investors will be willing to absorb increasing quantities of U.S. treasuries. According to one line of argument, there is nothing to worry about on this score. The reason that so much overseas capital flows into the United States, so it is said, is that the American economy is the engine of global growth and foreign investors simply want a “piece of the action.” Yet foreign investors seem willing to settle for markedly lower returns when they invest in the United States than the returns Americans get when they invest overseas.55 Far from acquiring equity in America’s dynamic corporations, many foreign investors turn out to be mainly intereste...

Kevin Lee2021-05-21Governments in fiscal difficulties have often resorted to printing money because doing so helps in three ways. First, they get to exchange intrinsically worthless pieces of paper for real goods and services. Secondly, inflation waters down the real value of official debt. Thirdly, if the salaries of government workers are paid with a lag or are only partially adjusted for inflation, inflation will lower their real incomes. The same holds true for other government transfer payments.
