“白银时代”的落地:明代货币白银化与银钱并行格局的形成
Qiu Yongzhi
The formation and development of the "Silver Age" in Chinese history lasted for more than eight centuries. Each stage has attracted many discussions, especially the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The silvering of currency in the Ming Dynasty triggered the transformation of monetary institutions, forms, and systems. It not only shook and ended the dominant position of national coinage and laid the foundation for circulation in the following five centuries, but also changed the way fiscal operations were conducted and shaped an alternative relationship between the state and the market. This book adopts a comprehensive monetary history framework to analyze the historical foundation, institutional causes, development process, and pattern establishment of monetary silvering in the Ming Dynasty. It strives to reveal the changes in banknotes, money, and silver and the twists and turns of the "Silver Age" from a long-term perspective.
