基于制度经济学的视角看贸易的产生和演进

On Trade Generation and Evolution Based on Institutional Economics

在对国际贸易理论的发展进行回顾与评析的基础上,指出既有的主流国际贸易理论存在两个缺陷。通过介绍新兴古典经济学对弥补两个缺陷所做的理论贡献,基于制度经济学和经济人类学的视角,探讨交换的前提条件——彼此承认产权——产生的原因,并具体考察了贸易是如何随着制度的发展和演进从部落的偶尔交换逐步发展到国际贸易的。

Based on review and discussion of international trade theory, we point out that the contemporary international trade theory has two defects at least. We briefly introduce neoclassical resolutions about two questions above. In the end, considering the institutions could save the cost of trade, and from the angles of institutional economics and economic anthropology, we do no only search out the reasons of establishing the foundation of exchange to the institution of ownership, but also explore how the evolution of trade is from occasional exchange between tribes to international trade gradually on the evolution of institutions.
