Abstract

Based on an address for a conference on Law and Transformation in South Africa, this paper explores problems with two twentieth-century approaches to government: the way of markets and the way of planning. It urges that the New Progressivism simultaneously offers (1) a distinctive conception of government's appropriate means, an outgrowth of the late-twentieth-century critique of economic planning, and (2) a distinctive understanding of government's appropriate ends, an outgrowth of evident failures with market arrangements and largely a product of the mid-twentieth-century critique of laissez faire. It emphasizes the need to replace bans and commands with appropriate incentives, and to attend to social norms and social meanings in leading human behavior in welfare-promoting directions. The ultimate goal is to promote some of the goals associated with America's New Deal and Europe's social democracy, but without using the crude, inflexible, and often counterproductive methods associated with those approaches. Some attention is devoted to the effects of globalization, the AIDS crisis, crime prevention, and the role of economic growth.
新进步主义
本文以在南非法律与转型会议上的发言为基础,探讨了20世纪两种政府方法的问题:市场方式和计划方式。它敦促新进步主义同时提供(1)政府适当手段的独特概念,这是20世纪后期对经济计划的批评的产物;(2)对政府适当目的的独特理解,这是市场安排明显失败的产物,很大程度上是20世纪中期对自由放任的批评的产物。它强调需要以适当的激励取代禁令和命令,并注意社会规范和社会意义,引导人类行为朝着促进福利的方向发展。最终目标是促进与美国新政和欧洲社会民主相关的一些目标,但不使用与这些方法相关的粗糙、僵化和往往适得其反的方法。一些注意力集中在全球化的影响、艾滋病危机、预防犯罪和经济增长的作用上。
