诺斯制度变迁理论方法论探析：修正的新古典经济学范式

A Study on the Methodology of North's Institution Variance Theory: the Correctional Paradigm of Neo - classical Economics

关于诺斯制度变迁理论的方法论，有观点认为它以新古典经济学的“理性人”范式为基点。笔者不同意这种观点，笔者认为它属于修正的新古典经济学范式。这主要表现在三个方面：一、修正的经济人假设；二、非零交易成本假设；三、新古典经济学分析工具的继承。

It is held that the methodology of North＇s institution variance theory is based on the “economic man” paradigrni of Neo -classlcal economics, which is not agreed on by the author. He maintains that the methodology of Northg institution variance theory is the correctional paradigm of Neo - classical economics. It is reflected in three respects ： （1） hypothesis of correctional economic man ; （2） hypothesis of positive transaction cost; （3） the inheritance of analysis tools of Neo - classical economics.
