### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***R on May 10, 2025*

前から気になっていた作品。著者のmehringにはオプション理論の創設者でもあるfischer blackの伝記もある。さらには、変貌したfedの役割に着目した「２１世紀のロンバード街」という名著もある。本書は著名な国際経済学者charles kindlebergerの伝記なのだが、副題のthe dollar systemに魅かれて、ずっと読もうと思っていたが、値段が高すぎてカートに入れたままだったが、今年の初めにどういうわけかwindowが開き、抵抗できない価格でオファーされていたので、早速購入。 あっという間に読めたのだが、読後感は失望につきる。というわけで、なかなかreviewが書けなかった。キンドルバーガーの実務家、学者としての軌跡をたどりながら、そこにからめて米ドルの還流システムの創設と特徴が描かれると期待していたのだが、最初から最後まで、わかり難い議論とキンドルバーガーの人生についての平板な記述が続くのだ。本書には東大教授の小宮隆太郎との邂逅（103ページ）も登場する。 経済学の手法自体の変貌、MITでの強い政策科学への志向、さらにはそれに対応してのキンドルバーガー自身の研究対象の変化を取り扱った部分はわかり易いが、それ自体は珍しいことでなない。国際経済学の理論家から経済史家への変身なのだ。金融危機の特異性にいち早く着目したキンドルバーガーだが、その部分についても本書で展開された議論は印象が薄い。 たらたらとネガティヴな感想のみを書き連ねてしまったが、もしかすると私の読み手としての力量が本書で展開された議論についていけないのかもしれない。もしかするともともとの期待が場違いだったのかも。まー、こういうこともあるか。
