摘要
作为一般等价物，货币只能充当已经形成的商品的交换媒介，也就是实现两个已经付出的劳动的交换。但是，现在大量的交换已经发生在过去的商品和未来的商品之间，是已经付出的劳动和尚未付出的劳动之间的交换。而且，现代的纸币发行也不再以黄金，而是以企业和政府的债务凭证为担保，这就是说，以一般等价物来定义货币，已经无法充分解释货币和商品交换的实际，所以，货币的定义也要顺应商品经济变化，转移到其作为信用的载体上来。即便在货币最古朴的形态—黄金上，也能找到作为信用载体的性质。
As a universal equivalent, money works only as the me dium of exchange of commodities, i.e., two paid labors. But now many exchanges h ave taken place between the commodities in the past and those in the future, i.e ., the exchanges between paid labors and labors to be paid. Besides, the guarantee of issuing paper money is no longer gold, but the debt warrant issued by enterpr ises and the government. In this case, to define money in terms of universal e quivalent can no longer fully explain the actual money and exchange of commoditi es. So the definition of money should be changed into credit carrier in acc ordance with the changes of commodity economy. It is easy to prove that the an cient money—gold also has the character of creditcarrier.
