美联储前任主席格林斯潘推荐本书——《世界是弯的》对于希望能了解全球金融体系运作的人而言，本书是重要读本。作者是米克巧妙的引用它与全球金融界重量级任务的互动经验，写成这本既富有远见卓识又不乏幽默的书。如果以全球化为主题的先驱作品《世界是平的》向人们阐释了全球化的趋势，那么本书要告诉你——在全球化之下，隐藏着一场无人能躲的危机。就背景来看，金融市场想来充斥着不确定性和不完整讯息，即欠缺透明。当人们看不到前方，就无法理解世界何以会有隐藏的危险。
Confronting the ever-increasing challenges of globalism and the economic problems plaguing the U.S. from a downward spiraling value of the dollar to the subprime mortgage crisis, Smick argues again and again that the solution to the problem is deregulation and encouraging entrepreneurship. While he examines the U.S. in relation to other emerging and potentially powerful markets (China and India, in particular), Smick argues weakly against Thomas Friedmans more utopian or opportunistic points of view.

内容简介

The 2007–08 subprime financial crisis is the jumping-off point for Smick's (Johnson Smick International) examination of current threats to global prosperity. He explains that although the subprime losses are small in the context of world financial markets, a lack of transparency has diminished investor confidence, dried up financial liquidity, and threatened the very foundations of our world financial system. He says that the growth of global financial markets has made it more difficult for central banks like the U.S. Federal Reserve to intercede effectively in times of crisis. Smick compares the subprime crisis to past events like the UK's forced devaluation of the pound in 1992 and Japan's economic stagnation in the 1990s. He warns of pending dangers like an overheating of the Chinese development juggernaut and the present calls for protectionism by U.S. politicians. He favors a global financial system built on transparency and trust. Smick's role for some 30 years as an economic adviser to central bankers and legislators of all stripes gives him a solid perspective on the global financial system. This summing-up of the subprime debacle and other global financial threats, aimed at general readers, is first rate; highly recommended for all public and academic libraries.
