市场竞争中的弱势群体与经济学

中国经济学向何处去是本文的中心议题。文章认为,中国经济学是反映中国经济建设和经济改革实践并为之服务的知识体系,既要开展“国民财富的性质和原因的研究”,又要开展“国民财富的增长和办法的研究”;所以,历史上的这两项研究成果,中国经济学都必须批判地继承和发展;任务的特殊性,决定中国经济学的研究对象既不能定位于生产关系,又不能定位于生产力,应当定位于市场的活动主体:研究对象是家庭、企业的生产和交换活动过程及其条件;研究对象的综合性,又要求研究方法的多样性。中国经济学要想不辱使命,必须从市场竞争中的弱势群体的立场上出发,因为这既是经济科学的优良传统,又是中国全面建设小康社会的着力点。

The Underprivileged in the Market Competition & Economics

The future of Chinese economics is the leading topic of this paper. In this author's opinion, Chinese economics is a subject that is influenced by and at the same time serves the country's economic construction and reform activities. The subject involves not only the study of the nature and cause of national wealth, but also its means of increase. So, the research outcomes in these two areas in the past should be critically examined and developed by Chinese economists. For the particularity of this mission, Chinese economics can't focus on production relations or productivity as the object of study, but on the main actors in the market activities. It should focus on household's or business' production and exchange procedures and conditions. For the comprehensiveness of the study, the diversity of the means is required. To accomplish this mission, Chinese economics must take a stand on the side of the underprivileged in the market competition, which is a fine tradition of economic science and the key point as well for China to build a well-to-do society.
