重商主义的嵌入性分析——以欧洲民族国家建设时期为例

The Analysis on the Embeddedness of Mercantilism:Take the Era of European Nation-State Building as an Example

重商主义的本质在于财富与权力之间的双向循环。由重商主义的思想渊源和政策效应而产生的经济秩序具有经济行为的民族化这一特征。重商主义所衍生的经济关系从属于其所处之具体时代的政治和社会关系。重商主义经济秩序是社会秩序的功能呈现,嵌植于社会体系之中,亦即具有嵌入性。在欧洲的民族国家建设时期,这种嵌入式重商主义的特点尤为明显。国王、贵族和商人这三股社会力量之间的博弈互动,成为孕育重商主义经济秩序的土壤。锁定这一特定时期来对重商主义加以解析,也有助于进一步挖掘国际政治经济学在嵌入性视角方面的研究。

Nationalization of economic behavior is characteristic of the economic order originated from the ideology and policy effects of mercantilism. Economic relations derived from mercantilism are subordioate to the political and social relations in their speeifie era. Mercantilist economic order embedded in the social system shows the function of .social order, which is called the embeddedness. The features of embedded - mercantilism is particular evident in the era of European nation - state building. Mercantilist economic order is rooted in the games and interaction atnong three social forces, that is, the kings, nobles and merchants. The analysis on mercantilism focusing on the specific era also conduces to further tap the research in International Political Economy from the perspective of embeddedness.
