经济学应该研究生产关系--兼评几种流行的关于经济学研究对象和方法的观点

经济学应该着重研究不同社会经济形态下生产关系的特殊运动形式。经济学必须研究具体的社会经济制度下生产关系的本质及其运动,不应把精力放在虚构某些抽象的、仿佛适用于一切社会的原则上,并把这些抽象原则作为研究的出发点。有经济学家公开宣扬,"人是自私的",说这是经济学的"结晶"、"精髓"。因此,经济学不需要去研究不同社会经济制度以及这些制度下人与人之间的经济关系,而只需要运用"人是自私的"这一原理来推断、分析各种经济问题。从实践上看,资产阶级学者从来都是利用"人的本性是自私的"这一命题来反对社会主义的。"保护个人财产,社会才能进步,经济才能发展"的说法,是一种反马克思主义的历史唯心主义的观点。

The Focus of Economics is on Production Relationship

Economics should focus its study on the special movement of production relationship under different social patterns. The nature and operation of production relationships differ case to case. There is no such principle that applied to every society. The judge " People are self - interest. " , which is claimed by some domestic economists, can be applied only in capitalism and have been used by the capitalist scholars to stand against socialism. And it is a historical idealism viewpoint.
