新奥地利学派:产业组织学的行为流派

新奥地利学派是20世纪七八十年代美英等国兴起的产业经济学流派之一,其代表人物是米塞斯和哈耶克等自由主义经济学家,其核心思想在于注重市场竞争的行为性、过程性,这与哈佛学派的市场结构取向、芝加哥学派的市场绩效取向截然不同,它事实上就是产业组织学中的行为学派。近20年来,这一流派在西方学术界、政治界产生了巨大的影响力,许多产业政策和反垄断法规都是依据新奥地利学派的思想制定的。

Neo- Austrian School:Action School of Industrial Organization

Neo-Austrian school, with liberal economists Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich A. Hayek as its leading figures, is one of the industrial economics schools that emerged in USA and UK during the 1970s and 1980s. The core of this theory lies in its emphasis on the behavior and process of market competition, which is very different from the structural analysis of the Harvard school and performance assessment of Chicago school. The recent 20 years saw its gaining influence in both the academia and political circle of the west with many of the industrial policies and antitrust laws being set under its guidance.
