摘要
纸币产生于宋代,纸币流通是宋代经济生活中相对于前代的一项重要变化.南宋最主要的纸币是会子,会子价格波动对社会生活产生的影响巨大而深远.梳理了南宋会子的市场价值——会价,可以发现其存在背离名义价值的长期趋势和阶段性特征.而会价的波动引发了社会财富再分配、民间经济纠纷和商人套利等问题,进而导致政府超额增发会子,此举加剧了会价跌落,对宋廷财政产生了极大危害.对此,为调控会价,宋廷实施了钱会中半、收兑旧会、称提会子等政策,地方官府和民间也纷纷采取了应对措施.
Abstract
The emergence and circulation of paper currency in the Song Dynasty marked a significant shift in economic life compared to previous periods.The most prominent paper currency in the Southern Song was Huizi,and fluctuations in its value had profound and far-reaching impacts on social life.Analyzing the market value of Huizi reveals a long-term trend and periodic characteristics of divergence from its nominal value.The fluctuations in the exchange rate led to issues such as the redistribution of social wealth,economic disputes among the populace,and merchant arbitrage,which in turn prompted the government to overissue Huizi.This overissuance exacerbated the decline in the exchange rate,severely harming the Song dynasty's finances.In response,the government of the Song Dynasty implemented policies such as"half-payment in both coins and Huizi"(qian-hui-zhong-ban),"redeeming old Huizi"(shou-dui-jiu-hui),and"stabilizing vale of Huizi"(cheng-ti-hui-zi).Local governments and the general populace also took various measures to tackle these issues.
