520 Based on professor Niall Ferguson's best-selling book "The
Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World" in
which he predicted the current economic crisis delves into
how the complex system of global finance evolved over the
centuries, how money has shaped the course of human
affairs and how the mechanics of this economic system work
to create seemingly unlimited wealth--or catastrophic
loss. By the beginning of the 21st century, the systems of
credit, insurance, bond trading and stock markets had
transcended all national boundaries to create a truly
global economic system, opening the door to unprecedented
growth, but also worldwide instability in the event of one
nation's downturn. In an effort to establish more
stability following the Great Depression, the U.S.
government's New Deal created a "property owning Democracy,
" a system of federally backed savings and loans that
allowed more people than ever before to buy homes by
offering low interest rates and long-term mortgages.
Rampant inflation in the 1970s, however, led the
government to remove regulations on interest rates and
opened the door to a massive scandal in the 1980s and one
of the country's worst economic crises. The
vulnerabilities of America's property-based economy would
be felt again 20 years later, in the current economic
crisis that has shaken the world. The crisis threatens
"Chimerica," the symbiotic relationship between China and
America in which China's vast savings from the
manufacturing of cheap goods has been lent to America to
fuel growth. But at what point will America's battered
economy lead China to cut off its line of credit? And how
might America respond? The answer, Ferguson suggests, may
be found in the history of the ascent of money.
