全球化时代的发展经济学--论发展经济学的挑战和目标

21世纪的国际环境发生了巨变.全球化趋势日益明显,经济发展不平衡持续加剧,恐怖主义威胁着国际安全;国与国之间经济发展差距阻碍公正、合理国际经济秩序的形成.不发达国家的贫困依然是全球性问题.发展经济学如何应对新世纪复杂的经济环境,不但是个理论问题,也是严峻的现实挑战.发展经济学应该为全球经济的均衡发展,为消除贫困做出贡献.这应是发展经济学在全球化时代研究的方向和服务宗旨.     

Etienne Laspeyres' History of the Economic Thought of the Netherlanders: A Law & Economics Classic?

Etienne Laspeyres (1834–1913) is today best known for the price index number formula named after him, but arguably his main contribution to economic literature is his Geschichte der Volkswirthschaftlichen Anschauungen der Niederländer und ihrer Litteratur zur Zeit der Republik (1863). This sketch sets out to consider whether this work, the contents of which will be briefly outlined and placed into context, can be considered a Law & Economics classic, in the sense of the biographical part of the Elgar Companion to Law and Economics (1999), as well. While interesting in its own right, the discussion of this question also serves as an inroad into the discussion of exactly what type of combination of law and economics is necessary to be considered part of Law & Economics as a specific mode of scholarly inquiry.     

高职高专院校“西方经济学”教学方法探析

由于传统教学过程中，教学目标不明，教学方法不当，导致教学质量不佳，在高职高专院校普遍重视实验实训的背景下，“西方经济学”有逐渐被边缘化的迹象。避免这种趋向需要结合高职高专院校的办学思路和专业设置，从多个角度探寻解决方法。     

The new economics of the university: a knowledge governance approach

University is becoming a cornerstone of the new emerging mode of governance of the generation and dissemination of knowledge as it reveals remarkable institutional advantages both in providing a solution to the knowledge trade-off and in reducing agency costs. The typical academic labor relationship emerges as an appropriate institutional device to handle the principal-agent problems when creative talents are required. The unique quasi-hierarchical setup of the academic system creates a supply of certified skills that are ready to operate on a professional basis. Such academic consultants can be paid on an ex-post per job basis matching only their variable costs. This supply leads to the creation of a specific market for research services where the demand is provided by the knowledge outsourcing of corporations. For this system to work effectively the non-exclusivity of intellectual property rights on the results of the research performed under contract is necessary. Non-exclusivity in academic employment relations should parallel non-exclusivity in knowledge ownership.

论文化政治经济学中的前学科性和后学科性

当代政治经济学研究中最激动人心的发展包括前学科探讨的复兴,而当后学科被用于政治经济学时,开拓了"文化政治经济学"的空间;在市场经济、以法律规则为基础的民族国家、市民社会和公共领域出现的制度化分离的被加强过程中,政治经济学研究变成了一种学科冒险;必须强调马克思主义传统和其他种类的重视经济和超经济之间相互依赖的制度和进化政治经济学的持续生命力。     

Group Size, Group Heterogeneity, and Voting Rules: An Application of the Buchanan-Tullock Model to the European Union

In The Calculus of Consent, Buchanan and Tullock develop a theory of voting rules in which the optimal rule is determined by minimizing the sum of voters' external and decision costs. Other researchers have extended the Buchanan-Tullock model to include the effects of group size and heterogeneity on external and decision costs and, subsequently, on the optimal voting rule. Despite the prominence of the Buchanan-Tullock model in the constitutional, legal, and public-choice literature, their theory has not (to our knowledge) been tested. In this paper we test the Buchanan-Tullock model by examining the establishment and evolution of voting rules in the European Union. Over the past four decades, the European Union has experienced significant changes in number and heterogeneity, and we interpret the general movement towards, and call for, less inclusive voting rules as support for Buchanan and Tullock's original theory.     

我国毒品政策的经济学分析

关于一个财政模型的错误的商榷

相继由中国经济出版社和中国人民大学出版社从1996年至2003年多次再版和印刷的<西方经济学>(下册宏观部分)教科书,关于财政模型证明和结论的若干次不同修改,关于推导出的含税率的税收乘数及其等于1的平衡预算乘数、含税率的转移支付乘数有明显的缺陷.     

经济学的政治经济研究:目的、方法与路径

二十世纪六、七十年代以来出现的大量政治经济研究集中关注经济政策背后的政治活动,本文按学科属性将这类研究归为经济学的政治经济研究,以区别于其他学科如政治学或历史学的政治经济研究,这有助于澄清当前因“新政治经济学”这一笼统概念所产生的认知混淆。本文提出,经济学之所以进行非市场领域的分析,归根结底是为了降低或避免市场失灵,仅从这一点看,经济学的政治经济研究与主流经济学非但不是背道而驰,而是志趣相投。     

Surveillance of the poor in a socio-financial enclosure: a critical analysis of Zidisha.org

This article provides a critical analysis in examining narratives on Zidisha.org, a microlending site that facilitates loans to the poor, building on media scholar Mark Andrejevic's conception of the digital enclosure and the critical anthropology of development scholar Anke Schwittay's theorisation of financial inclusion. Online microlending sites like Zidisha have wide-reaching implications for policy and development initiatives. The study's findings suggest that perceptible signs of the contemporary neo-liberal effort to assemble ordinary people through Web 2.0 communication technologies to participate in the socio-financial enclosure are riddled with issues of control and surveillance, coupled with a paradoxical meaning of the financial inclusion concept.
