Goetzmann, Princeton University Press, 2016Money Changes Everything, argues that the development of finance has made the growth of civilizations possible. Finance is a peculiar technology developed by humankind that allows us to move value forwards and backwards through time. This innovation has changed the very way we think about and plan for the future. Finance was present at key moments in history: driving the invention of writing in ancient Mesopotamia, spurring the classical civilazations of Greece and Rome to become great empires, determining the rise and fall of dynasties in imperial China, and underwriting the trade expeditions which led Europeans to the New World. This book traces the development of finance from its most ancient origins up through modern times and links it to the broader evolution of complex societies.Errata for Money Changes Everything The Great Mirror of Folly: Finance, Culture, and the Crash of 1720William N. Goetzmann, Catherine Labio, K. Geert Rouwenhorst and Timothy Young (Editors), Robert Shiller (Foreword). Yale University Press, Yale Series in Economic and Financial HistoryMy colleagues and I edited a volume about the first global financial crisis and the book that recorded it. The world s first global stock market bubble suddenly burst in 1720, destroying the dreams and fortunes of speculators in London, Paris, and Amsterdam virtually overnight. Their folly and misfortune inspired the publication of an extraordinary Dutch collection of satirical prints, plays, poetry, commentary, and financial prospectuses entitled, Het groote Tafereel de Dwaasheid (The Great Mirror of Folly), a unique and lavish record of the financial crisis and its cultural dimensions. The current book adopts the title. It is a book about the book, a wide-ranging interdisciplinary collaboration that uncovers the meaning and influence of the Tafereel and the profound, lasting, and multifaceted impact of the crash of 1720 on European cultures and financial markets.The Origins of Corporations: The Mills of Toulouse in the Middle AgesMatthew Landry (translator) William N. Goetzmann (editor), Yale University Press, 2015Germain Sicard proves that Europe s first corporations were fourteenth-century mill companies operating in Toulouse, rather than seventeenth-century English and Dutch trading companies as commonly believed. He shows that the corporate form derives from a unique ownership contract from Medieval Europe called pariage, and a culture of strong property rights and municipal self-governance. Based on archival research, Sicard s 1952 thesis has been translated into English with an introduction that places the work in the context of new institutional economics and legal theory. It is an important contribution to research on the history and legal origins of the corporation. Germain Sicard was a jurist and legal historian who served as Officer of General Affairs, Center for Historical Research, School of Practical Studies in France.The Equity Risk Premium: Essays and ExplorationsRoger Ibbotson and I have assembled our separate and co-authored research papers related to the equity risk premium into a volume.
