2001年美国军队入侵阿富汗前夜,中央情报局的官员忙着用成捆的簇新百元大钞收买当地的军阀,美元为美军的长驱直入铺平了道路。当时的美国情报官员动辄掷出数十万美元,让部族武装站在美军一方。“我们几乎是付钱来请他们推翻塔利班的”,一位美国高官曾如此表示。在塔利班政权被推翻之后,美国依然用美元让阿富汗人继续为其卖命。1

众所周知,货币是货物、服务或金融证券的计价单位,交易清算中介和价值储藏手段。世界上大部分货币只是在本国境内发挥上述作用,但某些货币却超越了国境而成为国际通行记账单位。美元就是全球贸易中使用最为广泛的货币。全球各国的中央银行都要借助美元或欧元等硬通货来管理其本国货币的汇率:有时是直接将本国货币汇率与硬通货挂钩;有时是通过包含硬通货在内的一揽子货币来确定汇率。

企业会使用国际化货币对贸易和金融交易进行结算。此外主要货币发行国周边地区的贩夫走卒也往往乐于接受这些货币,越是靠近边境就越是如此。
