再分配倾向的决定:对既有文献的考察

Determinants of Preferences for Redistribution:A literature Review

本文对再分配倾向决定领域的既有文献进行详尽考察,认为从内在动力角度来理解各种决定因素才是根本,归纳提炼了再分配倾向决定的四大动机:经济利益动机、风险规避动机、公平信念动机和声誉理想动机。再分配倾向决定的四大动机通过不尽相同的理论逻辑机制和多种实证影响因素对人们的再分配倾向产生影响,四大动机的框架为实证研究中的因素筛选提供了有力的工具。对于该领域进一步的研究,本文提出应用实验手段的重要性,并应注意宏观变量对再分配倾向的内生性影响。

This paper makes a detailed survey on the topic of preferences for redistribution. It＇ s proposed that the inner mechanism is the core to understand the determinants of people＇ s preferences for redistribution. Four motivations are extracted; they are Economic Interest Motivation, Risk Aversion Motivation, Fairness and Belief Motivation and Reputation and Faith Motivation. The four motivations affect individual＇ s preferences through different mechanisms and a variety of factors. This paper generally connects them closely and it is believed that the four - motivation act as a brief and clearer framework that benefits us on selecting the influential factors in empirical research on preferences for redistribution. For the further exploration on this topic, it emphasizes the experimental methodology and the endogenous effect of macro - factors.
