马歇尔计划与美元霸权的确立

The Marshall Plan and the Establishment of the Hegemony of Dollar

二战结束之际诞生的布雷顿森林体系虽为美元霸权提供了国际制度的平台,但美元霸权地位的真正起步却缘于冷战开始之际的马歇尔计划。通过援助西欧重建,美元实际上在布雷顿森林体系发挥作用之前已全面介入了西欧的经济,并由此起步演变成为战后世界的霸权货币。

Although the Bretton Woods System that formed during the end of the World War Ⅱ offered the platform of international system for the hegemony of dollar, the position of the hegemony of dollar was actually established by the Marshall Plan that proposed at the beginning of the Cold War. During aiding reconstruction of Western Europe, the dollar had actually intervened all - roundly in the economy of Western Europe before the Bretton Woods System played an active role, and gradually became a currency of hegemony from then on.
