“看不见的手”和自稳定的市场神话--复杂科学和新古典经济学的历史检验

"Invisible Hand" and the Myth of Self-stable Market

复杂科学和历史实践的检验清楚表明:亚当.斯密"看不见的手"宣称的和新古典经济学发展的诸多"自稳定市场"模型,是没有经验基础和科学依据的神话。这些广为流传的理论神话包括马歇尔的供求均衡模型,弗里希的经济周期噪声驱动模型,卢卡斯的微观基础模型,和宏观经济学的IS-LM模型。它们的理论基础是静态的、封闭的、和时空对称的均衡论,而工业革命和劳动分工的本质是非均衡的、开放的和时空非对称的演化过程。经济混沌与经济复杂的发现充分证明,西方经济学的哲学基础是方法论的个人主义,它无法解释劳动分工的多种模式、技术革新的创造性毁灭和周期性的经济危机。因而,马克思经济学面临重大的发展机遇。

Complicated science and historical practices proved that the 'self-stable market' model which developed from Adam Smith's 'invisible hand' theory and new classical economics actually based on neither scientific evidence nor practical experiences.These prevailing mythical theories include Marshall's supply and demand equilibrium model,Frisch's economic cycle noise-driven model,Lucas's micro foundation model and IS-LM model in Macro-economics.The theoretical basis for them is the equilibrium theory which is static,closed and space-time symmetrical while the industrial revolution and labor division,in essence,is non-equilibrium,open and not space-time symmetrical.The discovery of economic chaos and complexity fully demonstrate that the philosophical foundation for western economics is individualism in terms of methodology which is unable to explain the diverse models of labor division,creative destruction of technical innovation and cyclical economic crisis.This leaves great opportunities for Marxist economics to develop.
