第二节国际金本位制度的形成及其特点:
The gold standard had its origin in the use of gold coins as a medium of exchange, unit of account, and store of value. The gold standard as a legal institution dates from 1819, when the British Parliament passed the Resumption Act-exchanging currency notes for gold on demand at a fixed rate.
The Gold Standard (2)
Later in the eenth century, Germany, Japan, and other countries also adopted the gold standard. The United States effectively joined the gold standard in 1879 when it pegged to gold the paper “greenbacks” issued during the Civil War. The U. S. Gold Standard Act of 1900 institutionalized the dollar-gold link.
