摘要
近年来实验经济和行为博弈理论研究表明,人们越面临严重的不平等则越可能产生拒绝行为,甚至会牺牲自身物质利益促进平等;在个体层面,这种抗拒有时会使得有效率的合作或合约不能达成而损害效率;在社会层面,这种抗拒将破坏社会稳定而伤害效率。由于不平等将通过抗拒行为对效率间接产生不良影响,从而效率与(不)平等之间不是单调的交替关系,而可能是倒U型关系,恰当的中间水平的不平等可能最有助于效率。
Research in experimental economics and behavioral game theory in recent years has demonstrated that the greater inequity people suffer, the likelier they are to display resistant behavior and even to sacrifice their own material interests to strive for equity. To individuals, the resistance will at times hinder efficient cooperation or contracts, thus impairing efficiency; to a society, it will undermine social stability, also reducing efficiency. As inequity will have a negative indirect impact on efficiency via resistant behavior, there is no monotonous relationship between efficiency and （in） equity, but an inverted U-shaped relationship： appropriate intermediate-level inequity may be most conducive to efficiency.
