摘要

众所周知，经济学家喜欢将他们无所不能的经济分析工具应用于几乎所有现象，包括自然现象。经济学家的这一基本“缺陷”是否会导致一场普遍的社会危机，或者只是削弱他们自己的学术资历，我不敢说。但有一件事是肯定的:他们为人类做出贡献的唯一希望是通过这个“缺陷”提供的捷径。这种努力在我为我的论文选择的主题中是显而易见的，即民主的经济意义。要理解我探讨这个问题的原因，只需看看马里兰大学经济学家曼瑟尔·奥尔森(Mancur Olson)最近发表的一篇题为“独裁、民主与发展”的文章(《美国政治科学评论》1987年第1期)。3, 1993年9月，第567-76页)。

The Economic Significance of Democracy

Economists are known to love to apply their omnipotent tools of economic analysis to just about every phenomena, including natural ones. Whether this basic "flaw" by economists will result in a general social crisis, or simply undermine their own academic credentials, I cannot say. But one thing is certain: the only hope they have of making a contribution to humanity is by the short-cut route offered by this "flaw." Such an effort is apparent in the topic I have chosen for my paper, namely, the economic significance of democracy. To understand my reasons for pursuing this issue, look no further than the recent article by the economist Mancur Olson (University of Maryland) entitled "Dictatorship, Democracy, and Development" (>i>American Political Science Review>/i> 87, no. 3, September 1993, pp. 567-76).
