财富本质属性与虚拟经济

关于财富的研究涉及整个经济的基本和整个社会的经济增长方式，人们的传统财富观是建立在物质基础上，这种物质财富观正在受到挑战。其原因在于财富的本质属性实际上就是其社会属性，在市场经济中，财富的本质属性是价值的而不同物质的。也正因为如此，当人们在观念上将具有物质形态的资财当作真正的财富的时候，又不得不将自己财富中的绝大部分以储蓄、债券、股票和地产等虚拟资产的形式持有。这不是统计与理念之间的矛盾，而是理论错位所至。虚拟财富是更能体现财富本质属性——价值属性或社会属性的财富。它的交易，创造以及流动等等不是仅仅因为它们影响了物质财富才有意义，它们本身就直接体现着市场经济中各种行为的目的——价值增值。

The Effects of Temporary Exchange-Rate-Based Stabilizations when Money Serves a Productive Role

This paper investigates the effects on production, consumption, and welfare that result from a temporary exchange-rate-based (ERB) stabilization plan. The analysis is based on a dynamic optimizing model of a small open economy where real money is assumed to be a factor that is used in the production of goods. The assumption of money serving a productive role makes the model capable of generating a boom-bust cycle in output, as is often experienced during ERB stabilization plans. It is shown that if the stabilization plan is expected not to be too short and/or the costs associated with the breakdown of the plan are not too high, a temporary decrease in the rate of exchange rate devaluation will increase economic welfare. It is also found that if some of the increase in output in the initial phase of the stabilization plan is saved for periods after the plan has broken down, there is a greater chance that the ERB plan will increase economic welfare. On the other hand, if the plan is not sufficiently credible at the outset, or there is not enough intertemporal transference of output, the stabilization plan is likely to be harmful to economic welfare.

民营经济与广东内源型、外源型经济的发展

中共广东省九届二次全会提出,要进一步促进外源型经济的提高和发展,大力促进内源型经济发展,形成外源型经济和内源型经济相互促进、协调发展的新格局。这是广东省提高综合国力与国际竞争力、增创发展后劲的一个重大战略问题。如何调整“外源”、力拓“内源”已成为全省上下关注的热门话题。本文试图从内源型经济与外源型经济的内涵入手,对我省内源型经济与外源型经济现状加以简要分析,并对如何实施这一发展战略加以简要分析。     

发展循环经济是实现可持续发展的本质要求

几代中国人，从小学开始就接受祖国“地大物博、矿产丰富”的教育。很多人都知道，我国的主要矿产资源多达45种，品种齐全、总量丰富。然而，又有多少人能够想到，随着经济的发展，我们引以为傲的这45种主要矿产，到2010年可以保证需求的仅为21种；到2020年可以保证需求的仅为9种，特别是铁．锰、铜、铝铁矿、钾盐等关系国家经济安全的大宗矿石将严重短缺。严峻的形势表明，如果不重构节约型社会，大力发展高效率的循环经济体系，我国实现全面建设小康社会所需的资源就只能过分依赖国际市场，而这样做的风险很大，国家经济安全根本无法得到保障。

民营企业是拉动中国经济增长的重要力量

党的十六大明确提出“必须毫不动摇地鼓励、支持和引导非公有制经济发展”，并对影响非公经济发展各类政策体制问题做出了回答。中国非公经济发展正进入一个大好时期。以公有制为主体，多种所有制经济共同发展的基本国策为迅速成长的民营企业的发展提供了制度基础；从战略上调整国有经济布局，国有经济有进有退的调整，为民间投资和民营企业的发展让出了一条大路。党和国家对非公经济政策的重大调整是解放生产力、发展生产力的重大战略，得到了全社会的广泛认同。初步实践的经验已经证明，这一政策为中国经济的持续稳定增长注入了强劲动力。…     

政府经济作用定位的分析

在我国体制转轨的进程中，政府在经济发展中应当发挥怎么样的作用，政府如何进一步掌握好经济调节工具和宏观经济政策去影响经济事务，政府在提供经济运行的制度基础上如何处理其与企业的关系，这些问题不仅需要在理论上做出说明，更需要在实践中做出定位解释。本文从历史的演变及现实的考察角度，对上述问题做出分析，以期对当前我国政府经济职能与作用的定位提出设想。     

Dependence and Stability of the Demand for Money in a Small open Economy: The Case of Côte-d'Ivoire

Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of foreign variables on the demand for money in Côte-d'Ivoire during 1970. I-1986. IV. In the model specification, we consider that Côte-d'Ivoire is a member of the Franc zone. Within the zone, the CFA Franc is pegged to the French Franc, but outside the zone or with the generalized floating system, the CFA Franc espouses the form taken by the French Franc against other major currencies. The model satisfactorily explains behavioral relationships under these two regimes. Domestic determinants of the demand for real cash balances are the real GDP, the expected rate of inflation, the degree of credit restraint, and expectations of economic instability. International influences are captured by foreign interest and exchange rates. Stability and causality tests indicate that the money demand relation has been stable over time and is highly influenced by foreign interest rates. Résumé: Le présent document étudie les incidences des variables extérieures sur la demande de monnaie en Côte-d'Ivoire de 1970. I à 1986.IV. Dans la spécification du modéle, nous considérons que la COcte-d'Ivoire est membre de la Zone Franc, mais hors de la Zone ou avec le systéme flottant généralisé, le Franc CFA adopte les formes proses par le Franc Francais par rapport aux devise fortes. Le modéle explique de manié satisfaisante les rapprots aux devises fortes. Le modéle explique de manié satisfaisante les rapprots de comportement sous ces deux régimes. Les facteurs déterminants sur la demande de bilans de trésorerie réelle sont le PIB réel, le taus d'inflation prévisionnel, le degré de pénurie de crédit, les menaces d'instabilitééconomique. Les influences internationales sont représentées par les intéréts étrangers et les taux de change. Les tests de stabilité et der cause à effect indiquent que le rapport de la demande de monnaie a éaté stable au fil du temps et est fortement influencé par les taus d'intérét étrangers.     

亚洲经济的未来及中国在亚洲地区的作用

由市场和分析所作的亚洲经济未来的评估一直是摇摆不定的,80年代和90年代早期,人们的情绪是乐观向上的,主要是集中在“日本是东南亚四小龙之首”以及中国在世界经济中脱颖而出出。90年代末,人们的情绪变成了悲观主义,人们预计有一个长期的地区性衰退,但是当处于经济危机的国家实现了Ⅴ型复苏后,人们又开始乐观起来。     

On the Role of Monetary Policy in a Deflationary Economy: The Case of Japan

In this paper we review the role of monetary policy for a country facing deflationary pressure based on the recent experience of the Japanese economy. We discuss economic background of inflation policy in Japan and analyze the impacts of the policy. We made simple calculations regarding how much the debt of selected companies and government can be reduced by mild inflation. Noting that the Fisher effect does not work perfectly under liquidity traps, the effect of inflation on debt issue appears quite large. To maintain controllable stable inflation, inflation targeting is a good candidate for the policy rule. J. Japan. Int. Econ., December 2000, 14(4), pp. 238–260.

The Role of the Exchange Rate as a Shock Absorber in a Small Open Economy

This paper analyses interactions between the real exchange rate and business cycles in a small open economy like Norway. Using a structural vector autoregression model, the role of different shocks are analysed, to investigate to what extent the real exchange rate is absorbing shocks, or a source of shocks itself. The results are ambiguous. Output and the real exchange rate are mainly explained by separate shocks, so that relinquishing exchange rate independence should come at little cost. However, the importance of nominal shocks in the business cycle emphasises that stabilisation is possible. Hence, remaining monetary independence may be attractive.     

The Role of Small Towns in the Local Economy and Some Implications for Development Policy

Over recent years, socio-economic restructuring has tended to undermine the traditional functions of small rural towns. Empirical evidence also suggests that significant proportions of economic transactions are carried out through the regional, national and international economy. Establishing the degree to which a settlement is integrated into its locality provides an indication of its contemporary functions and potential role in rural development. In this paper, reliable measures of economic linkages are developed, and it is shown that the strength of local integration is a function of the existing economic structure of the town as well as its proximity to metropolitan centres.
