历史逻辑起点的政治经济学含义:1979年前后的中国制度变迁

The implication of starting point of historical logic:China's institutional change before and after 1979

通过揭示历史逻辑起点的政治经济学含义,本文考察了历史逻辑起点对中国制度变迁与社会转型的实质性影响。本文认为,执政党的政治动员能力、社队企业、相对扁平的收入分配状况以及20世纪60年代末的开放与引进在一定程度上减少了始自1979年的改革启动成本从而使中国的社会转型呈现出与苏东国家不同的特质。

By revealing the political and economic implications of the logical starting point of history, this paper explores what substantial impact the logical starting point of history has on the institutional change and social transformation in China. This paper argues that the ruling party＇s power of mobilization, the enterprises owned by communes and brigades, the people＇s relatively even income distribution, and the limited openness and introduction policy adopted at the end of 1960s have reduced the initiation cost of the epoch-making reform started in 1979 and made China＇s social transformation radically different from that in former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.
