契约诚信的经济分析

Economic analysis on contract integrity

在市场经济契约自由的条件下,由于个体理性可能导致集体非理性等因素,使得交易双方不一定必然讲诚信。但诚信却是产生交易行为不可或缺的前提,尤其是在目前大量交易是通过非正式契约安排进行的条件下。维护契约诚信可以从规范政府行为、反垄断、加强政府采购法规的研究和建立完善的社会信用体系等方面入手。

Under the freedom of contracts in market economy, both parties in trade would not inevitably be sincere owing to the fact that individual rationality would result in the irrationality of the collective. But integrity is an indispensable factor in transaction, especially under the condition that lots of contracts are imperfect nowadays. Contract integrity can be achieved through regulating government＇s behavior, anti-monopoly, strengthening research of regulation of governmental procurement, establishing the system of social credit and so on.
