Equilibrium and adjustment of exchange rates in the Chinese silver standard economy, 1928–1935Cliometrica - Tập 7 - Trang 87-98 - 2012
Tai-kuang Ho, Cheng-chung Lai, Joshua Jr-shiang Gau
We examine the equilibrium and adjustment of exchange rates in the Chinese
silver standard economy, 1928–1935. We find a robust long-run relationship
between the Chinese dollar exchange rate and the metallic value of the Chinese
dollar. The deviation from the equilibrium is short-lived and is quickly
eliminated by arbitrage activities. We also find that governmental measures to
limit free silver f... hiện toàn bộ

Friedman and Schwartz famously regard these local initiatives as a second best
solution,... hiện toàn bộ

This article constructs indicators of revealed comparative advantage for 18
British manufacturing industries for the years 1880, 1890, and 1900. These
indicators constitute the earliest systematic measurements of the relative
performance of British industries. The indicators are then employed in a
four-factor Heckscher–Ohlin model of trade, with the factors being capital,
labour, material inputs, ... hiện toàn bộ

Utilizing archival data from the Lithuanian Central Bureau of Statistics, we
piece together the most complete gross domestic product (GDP) figure during the
interwar period for Lithuania in accordance with the System of National Accounts
(SNA 2008). Lithuania and the other Baltic states have largely been ignored by
economic historians due to the short time spans of their independence in the
