Performance Legitimacy,State Autonomy and China's Economic Miracle

Theories that explain post-Mao China's economic success tend to attribute it to one or several ‘successful’ policies or institutions of the Chinese government, or to account for the success from economic perspectives. This article argues that the success of the Chinese economy relies not just on the Chinese state's economic policy but also on its social policies. Moreover, China's economic success does not merely lie in the effectiveness of any single economic or social policy or institution, but also in the state's capacity to make a policy shift when it faces the negative unintended consequences of its earlier policies. The Chinese state is compelled to make policy shifts quickly because performance constitutes the primary base of its legitimacy, and the Chinese state is able to make policy shifts because it enjoys a high level of autonomy inherited from China's past. China's economic development follows no fixed policies and relies on no stable institutions, and there is no ‘China model’ or ‘Beijing consensus’ that can be constructed to explain its success.

台湾经济从“奇迹”到“困境”发展过程的重新审视——基于东亚新学说的理论视角

东亚新学说理论认为，曾经创造了“东亚奇迹”的东亚模式是有特点的创新体系，但任何时期都不存在不随时代变化而因应变革的发展模式。东亚金融危机的爆发与国际经济环境变迁有直接的联系，同时在相当程度上也是东亚发展模式调整滞后的结果。以此理论视角重新审视60年来台湾经济发展的过程可以看出，作为东亚模式创新体系基本要素的“出口导向”、“政府作用”等始终发挥着重要作用，只是在时空背景发生巨大变化时，台湾当局没有进行相应的调整与变革，甚至反向作为，才使得台湾经济发生了由“奇迹”到“困境”的演变过程。
