内容简介
This authoritative and comprehensive dictionary contains clear, concise definitions of approximately 3,500 key economic terms. Covering all aspects of economics including economic theory and policy, applied microeconomics and macroeconomics, labour economics, public economics and public finance, monetary economics, and environmental economics, this is the essential reference work in this area.
The new edition of this dictionary has been updated to include entries on China, India, and South America, to reflect the increase in prominence of these regions in the global economy. There is strong coverage of international trade and many entries on economic organizations and institutions from around the world. Fully revised to keep up to date with this fast-moving field, this new edition expands the coverage to include entries such as austerity measures, General Anti Abuse Rule, propensity score matching, and shadow bank.
Entries are supplemented by entry-level web links, which are listed and regularly updated on a companion website, giving the reader the opportunity to explore further the areas covered in the dictionary. Useful appendices include a list of institutional acronyms and their affiliated websites, a list of Nobel prize-winners in economics, the Greek alphabet, and a list of relevant websites.
As ideal for browsing as it is useful for quick reference, this dictionary remains an essential guide for students and teachers of economics, business, and finance, as well as for professional economists and anyone who has to deal with economic data.
Review
Review from previous edition John Black's dictionary provides clear and concise explanations...An excellent system of cross-referencing the various entries is a valuable aspect...this book is strongly recommended as a handy work of reference for any non-economist who wants to have a better idea about what is going on in economic debates...this book deserves to sell well to a wide audience...it illuminates in a concise and accessible way many of the words and ideas used both in economics itself and in practical political debates on the subject.

我是一位对经济学抱有浓厚兴趣的普通爱好者,平时喜欢阅读一些经济学方面的通俗读物,也关注一些宏观经济新闻。我购买《牛津经济学词典》第五版(英文原版 A Dictionary of Economics Ox)的初衷,是希望能够在我阅读和学习的过程中,遇到不认识的经济学名词时,能够迅速找到权威、准确的解释,从而避免望文生义,加深对内容的理解。我期望这本书的条目解释既要有学术的严谨性,又要有一定的通俗性,能够让非专业人士也能读懂。例如,当我在新闻中看到“滞胀”或“货币宽松”这样的词汇时,我希望能在这本词典里找到清晰明了的定义,以及一些能够帮助我理解其内在逻辑的简要说明。如果还能提供一些与这些概念相关的历史背景或者实际应用案例,那就更好了。我希望能通过这本书,逐步建立起一个相对完整的经济学知识体系,能够更好地理解我们所处的经济环境,并对经济现象有更深刻的洞察。
评分我是一名退休多年的大学教授,虽然我的专业并非经济学,但一直对经济运行的规律保持着学习的热情。我经常会翻阅一些经济学家的著作,或者观看相关的讲座。对于《牛津经济学词典》第五版(英文原版 A Dictionary of Economics Ox),我更多的是抱着一种“温故知新”的心态。我希望这本书能够像一位老友一样,在我需要的时候,为我提供清晰、准确的指引。我期望它能够涵盖经济学发展史上那些重要的理论和人物,比如亚当·斯密的“看不见的手”,凯恩斯的“有效需求”,或者弗里德曼的“货币主义”。我希望它能用简洁的语言,重温这些经典的经济学思想。同时,我也希望它能展现出经济学领域的新发展,让我在回顾经典的同时,也能了解到现代经济学研究的新方向和新成果。对于一些学术上的争议或者不同学派的观点,我希望它能中立客观地进行阐述,让我能够形成自己的独立思考。
评分作为一名长期在金融行业摸爬滚打的从业者,对牛津经济学词典第五版(英文原版 A Dictionary of Economics Ox)的期待值可以说相当高。这本书,对于我这样需要时常接触各种前沿经济理论和复杂金融工具的人来说,简直是必备的“宝典”。我常常在阅读最新研究报告、分析国际市场动态时,遇到一些晦涩的经济术语,或是需要快速梳理某个理论的来龙去脉,这时候,一本权威、全面的经济学词典就显得尤为重要。我期望这本第五版能继承牛津系列一贯的严谨和深度,在原有基础上,能够更及时地纳入近些年出现的、极具影响力的经济学概念和模型,比如关于行为经济学、数字经济、可持续发展经济学等领域的新进展。当然,对于那些经典经济学理论的解释,我也希望能更加清晰易懂,配以恰当的案例,让不同背景的读者都能快速掌握核心要义。同时,作为一个英文原版读者,我非常看重其语言的精确性和流畅性,希望能看到那些专业术语的英文原意被准确无误地阐释,并能提供一些相关的英文例句,帮助我更好地理解和运用这些术语。
评分作为一名对全球经济发展趋势保持高度关注的科技行业从业者,我购买《牛津经济学词典》第五版(英文原版 A Dictionary of Economics Ox)的目的是为了更好地理解那些影响科技创新和产业格局的宏观经济因素。我经常需要接触到关于各国产业政策、贸易协定、以及新技术对经济结构影响的分析报告。我希望这本词典能在条目解释中,不仅仅局限于理论本身,更能体现出这些理论在现实世界中的应用,尤其是在科技和产业领域。例如,对于“平台经济”、“网络效应”、“大数据定价”等与我行业紧密相关的概念,我希望能看到它们在经济学理论框架下的专业阐释,以及它们是如何塑造当前商业模式的。同时,我也希望这本书能够包含一些与国际经济和全球治理相关的内容,比如对不同国家经济体制的介绍,或者对国际金融机构职能的解释,这对于我理解全球化背景下的商业机会和风险非常有帮助。
评分拿到这本《牛津经济学词典》第五版(英文原版 A Dictionary of Economics Ox)后,我最直观的感受就是它的“厚重感”——不只是指物理上的重量,更是其内容的深度和广度给人的震撼。作为一名正在攻读经济学硕士的学生,我常常为各种理论的细枝末节感到困惑,也对一些历史悠久的经济学派的起源和发展充满好奇。我特别希望这本词典能成为我学术研究的坚实后盾。例如,在撰写论文时,我需要深入理解某个理论的演变过程,或者某个经济学家提出的某个概念是如何在学界引起反响的。我期待这本词典能够提供详尽的条目解释,包括但不限于理论的提出者、提出时间、核心论点、重要分支、以及其在经济学史上的地位和影响。对于一些复杂的数学模型或计量方法,我也希望它能有简明的介绍,即使不深入推导,也能让我对这些工具有一个基本的认识。而且,我希望能找到一些与时俱进的条目,比如关于当下热门的“零碳经济”或者“人工智能对就业的影响”等议题,看看权威的经济学解释是如何阐述这些新现象的。
