520 "For a very long time, silver was money, but in the late
nineteenth century, much of the world adopted some variant
of the gold standard. China, however, remained the most
populous country still using silver, although the country
had no unified national currency; there was not one
standard, but many: silver coins circulated alongside
chunks of silver and every transaction became an
"encounter of wits." This book focuses on how officials,
policymakers, bankers, merchants, academics, and
journalists in China and around the world answered a
simple question: how should China change its monetary
system? As different governments in China attempted to
create a unified monetary standard in the late 19th and
early 20th century, imperial powers--the United States,
England, and Japan--tried to shape the direction of
Chinese monetary reform for their own benefit. This book
argues that the Silver Era in World history ended due to
the interaction of imperial competition in East Asia and
the state-building projects of different governments in
China. When the Nationalist government of China went off
the silver standard in 1935, it marked not just a key
moment in Chinese history, but in world history"--
