題名: | Money, prices, and causality: The Chinese hyperinflation, 1946–1949, reexamined | 作者: | Quddus, Munir;Liu, Jin-Tan;Butler, John S. 劉錦添 |

As in the previous study, we find a feedback relationship between money and prices for the mainland China currency area. However, this relationship seems to be statistically significant only after including the post-reform period (August 1948 to May 1949) in the causality tests. For Taiwan and Manchuria, we find a strong one-way causality from inflation to money. These results confirm the widespread belief among economic historians that the Chinese hyperinflation was basically caused by the Nationalist governments` desperate attempts to finance its mounting war expenditures by printing money. | 關聯: | Journal of Macroeconomics, 11(3), 447-453 | 資料類型: | article | DOI: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/0165-1765(88)90177-2 |
