一般均衡理论批判

A Critique of General Equilibrium Theory

一般均衡理论是西方主流经济学的核。它源自亚当·斯密的"看不见的手"这一术语,经过瓦尔拉斯、阿罗、德布鲁等几代新古典主义经济学家的证明发展,以定理的形式成为主流经济学范式。理性预期学派、有效市场假说、动态随机一般均衡(DSGE)理论则是其现代变种。它以数理逻辑形式,通过简单化和窄化人类经济行为,采用循环论证的方式,以期得出均衡的唯一性和稳定性的结论。一般均衡理论的实质是要否定资本主义的基本矛盾,否定经济危机发生的可能性,是一种为资本主义制度辩护的工具。

General equilibrium theory is the core of mainstream western economics. Arising from the invisible hand of Adam Smith, this term has become the paradigm as an axiom after the theory was proved by Leon Walras, Kenneth Arrow and Gerard Debreu. Rational expectations, efficient market hypothesis, dynamic stochastic general equilibrium are its modern versions. In the form of mathematical logic, the theory comes to the conclusion of uniqueness and stability by simplifying and narrowing human economic behavior, and by way of the circularreasoning. The nature of the theory is to deny the basic contradictions of capitalism and the possibility of economic crises, it is in fact a defense tool for capitalism system.
