Sidgwick and Edgeworth on indeterminacy in the labour market

Commentators have underlined Sidgwick's influence on Edgeworth's thinking and more particularly on New and Old Methods of Ethics (1877). But have failed to notice that Sidgwick remained a major reference in Mathematical Psychics (1881). Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to show that, in this book, Edgeworth wanted to refine upon the problem of wages addressed by Sidgwick in 1879. The thesis of the paper is that Sidgwick and Edgeworth's disagreement as to the role of open competition in the resolution of indeterminacy in the labour market stems from two different notions of competition. This latter can be seen as a differentiation process, as in Sidgwick's, or as a replication mechanism, as in Edgeworth's.     

网络交易风险语境下消费者的道德决策研究——以道德强度、道德哲学与匿名性的影响为据

研究以网络交易风险与消费者道德决策理论为铺垫,从道德议题本身（道德强度）、个人特性（道德哲学）与网络交易环境（匿名性）三个面向探讨其影响因素。通过设定网络交易的道德情境剧本与相关假设,收集450份有效样本进行实证检测分析发现：道德强度可简化为“潜在损害”与“社会压力”;道德哲学对于道德知觉、道德判断及道德意图皆产生显著影响;网络匿名性越高,则消费者的道德意图愈低。解构消费者道德决策样态及其管理意涵,以期为网络交易的和谐发展提供科学的决策路径指引。     

思想政治教育专业中国哲学史本科教学的整体性思考

由于教学理念、课程设置、教学内容、教学形式、教学考核等方面存在诸多问题,目前的中国哲学史教学在非哲学专业院校一度受到冷落,所以只有从教学理念、课程设置、教学内容、教学形式、考核方式五个方面作相应的教学改革,方能改变中国哲学史目前的现状和困境。     

David Gawen Champernowne, 1912-2000: in appreciation

David Champernowne, who died in August 2000 aged 88, was notdirectly associated with the Cambridge Journal of Economics,but his major contributions belong to and serve to extend theapproach to economics which the journal wishes to preserve andadvance. This short obituary article records the journal's appreciationof his life and work.     

The Cambridge School of Keynesian Economics

There have been strong ties between the Cambridge Journal ofEconomics (CJE) and the Cambridge School of Keynesian Economics,from the very beginning. In this paper, the author investigatesthe environment that saw the birth of the CJE at Cambridge (UK),in 1977, and the relationship that linked it to the direct pupilsof Keynes. A critical question is explicitly examined: why didn'tthe ‘Keynesian revolution’ succeed in becoming apermanent winning paradigm? Some behavioural mistakes of themembers of the Keynesian School may explain this lack of success,but only to a certain extent. In any case, there were and therestill are remedies too. But what we are inheriting is a uniqueset of analytical building blocks (the paper lists eight ofthem) that makes this School of economics a viable (and in somedirections definitely superior) alternative to mainstream economics.Admittedly, there is some important work still to be done. Thepaper highlights the need for a two-stage approach, addressingpure theory and extensive institutional analysis. It is arguedthat a combination of the two would strengthen the coherenceof the theoretical foundations, and at the same time would providea fruitful extension of economic analysis to empirical, institutionaland economic dynamics investigations.     

科学发展趋势与经济地理学发展中的几个问题

本文讨论了科学发展的现代趋势：高度分化、强调综合、多学科交叉、科技经济一体化;形成多层次的结构体系、科技超前发展、基础理论地位上升、知识成为最重要的生产力;文章认为学科交叉是经济地理学的生命．学科理论滞后、层次结构不完整、宏观与微观脱节、对方法论的研究较薄弱是应该引起重视的问题。

The “Cambridge” critique of the quantity theory of money: A note on how quantitative easing vindicates it

Through quantitative easing markets have been flooded with liquidity, but rather than inflation we have witnessed a general deflation because of the liquidity trap environment in which the banking system operated; this article revisits the arguments against the quantity theory in the “Cambridge” tradition of John Maynard Keynes, Richard Kahn, and Nicholas Kaldor, and defends their soundness and topicality.     

Kaldor and Robinson on money and growth

Post-Keynesian theory was developed as an alternative to mainstream neoclassical economics. However, post-Keynesians have not succeeded in getting their message through, partly because of the difficult and controversial economic issues upon which they embarked, partly because they emphasized, both in their monetary and growth analysis, theories that do not radically depart from the mainstream of economics. This paper therefore argues that post-Keynesian economics got off on the wrong foot. Rather than having emphasized the works of Minsky and (the early) Kaldor in money, post-Keynesians should have considered the contributions of Robinson and Kahn. Also, rather than having emphasized the work of Robinson and Harrod on growth, they ought to have given greater emphasis to Kaldor's demand-oriented growth theory. Hence, as a simplification, post-Keynesians should have considered Robinson on money, not Kaldor; and Kaldor on growth, not Robinson.     

Some New Approaches to Evolutionary Economics

This paper examines the relationship between energy production and economic growth in New Mexico using cross section data for the state's 33 counties in Census years 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990 and 2000. The central question is whether or not New Mexico's counties are subject to the resource curse, a phenomenon documented frequently in the literature. Most empirical studies of the resource curse hypothesis have used national or state level data and a broad definition of natural resources. In contrast, this analysis uses county level data with a focus on oil and gas extraction. The estimated models suggest that oil and gas extraction in New Mexico counties has had a small but positive effect on income, employment and population. Similar results were obtained when the model was estimated for 925 counties in 13 energy producing states for the year 2000.     

当代大学生道德情感对道德行为的影响及应对措施

道德情感与道德行为相互作用、密不可分。道德情感是道德行为与道德认识之间的桥梁;道德情感的发展过程本身就是一种道德行为;道德情感对道德行为具有定向、激励和强化的功能。随着社会的发展,当代大学生的思想道德状况发生了变化,他们的道德情感总体上是积极向上的,但也有一些令人担忧的方面,如道德情感空洞、薄弱、不稳定等。为此,大学生自身应该加强正确世界观、人生观和价值观的培养;学校、家庭和社会应该为大学生营造出良好的道德环境,引导大学生形成优秀的道德情感,促进道德行为的发生。     

Financial institutions and the Cambridge theory of distribution

This paper shows how the Cambridge theory of distribution isaffected by the nature of financial intermediation. When creditmarkets are akin to loanable funds markets in which lenderstransfer resources to borrowers, the Cambridge theory holdsand steady-state income distribution is independent of workers'saving behaviour. However, when credit markets embody endogenouslygenerated bank money, the Cambridge theory does not hold. Financialinstitutions and endogenous money therefore matter for long-runsteady-state outcomes, just as they do for short-run macroeconomicoutcomes.     

关于劳动力市场分割动因的三种解释——评述与拓展

20世纪80年代中期以来,新古典经济学凭借对内部劳动力市场理论的深入拓展,在SLM理论的研究中日益占据主导地位,然而均衡分析的思路却打破了资本主义生产关系制造分割的劳动力市场这一根本性的矛盾。以激进政治经济学派为代表的西方马克思主义经济学研究,通过对资本主义劳动过程和积累的社会结构的分析,在生产关系的层面对劳动力市场分割的形成和延续提供了进一步解释。而剑桥学派秉持的社会经济因素作用于劳动力市场结构形成的思路,无疑有助于解释劳动力供给和需求的结构如何"天然地"制造分割,将更广泛的社会经济因素引入了讨论。在全球化生产的背景下对上述理论进行评析、互动与拓展,可以为解释中国的劳动力市场分割提供一个更有益的方法论参考。     

儒家道德自觉的伦理设计

在儒家的视野中,道德情感是道德自觉得以成立和维持的基础,是其原动力,人性善和天人合一奠定了它的理论基础,＂敬＂与＂静＂的修养工夫是实现道德自觉的途径,而身、心、家、国的相互转化,是主体认识和发展自我、实现道德自觉的重要原因。     

论道德效力及其表征

道德效力不仅仅是道德规范的影响力,而是道德价值体系整体的效力,是道德价值体系本身所具有的能实现一定社会目标、达到某种社会效果的力量。它不仅是一个量的概念,因受各种因素的影响而在程度上有所不同,而且在性质上也有善与恶的区分。相对于法律效力,道德效力有其独有的特性。其外在表征主要体现在求善的执着、个体的自律和他律、社会秩序的良好三个方面。
