论种类偏向型进口刺激政策

On the Variety-Biased Policy for Simulating Import

本文基于贸易品种类增长的福利内涵,提出一个全新的概念:"种类偏向型进口刺激政策",即刺激进口的政策重点应该是增加进口产品的种类,而不是单纯地扩大现有进口产品的规模。实施种类偏向型进口刺激政策,通过进口产品种类的增加来扩大进口规模,不仅能从根本上缓解外部失衡问题,更为重要的是,种类偏向型进口刺激政策将能充分发挥进口对于改善国内消费者福利、促进制造业生产率进步以及改善贸易条件的政策功能,使进口由"为出口而进口"的扭曲状态向常态回归。

Based on the welfare connotation of the growth of tradable goods variety,the paper proposes a new concept of "variety-biased policy for simulating import".With the concept of "variety-biased policy for simulating import",we mean that policies for simulating import should put emphasis on expanding the variety of tradable goods,rather than simply increasing their quantity.In our opinion,implementing variety-biased policy for simulating import,which means increasing the quantity of import goods by expanding their variety,can not only completely ease the problem of the external imbalance,but,what's more important,can fully improve the warfare of the domestic customers,the manufacturing productivity as well as the terms of trade so that convert the state of import from the distorted position of "import for export" to the normal state.
