在欧洲竞争法中的人类学、历史以及“更为经济的方法”论纲

Anthropology,History and the “More Economic Approach” in European Competition Law-A Review Eassy

笔者总结了费肯杰在其著作中对竞争法中"更为经济的方法"表达的观点。总体来说,费肯杰从人类学的视角出发,认为经济学在竞争法中占据了过度重要的地位,欧洲竞争法应当结合其经历和实际状况,对"不甚经济的方法"予以更多的重视。其观点建立在深厚的哲学基础上,认为新古典主义经济学作为竞争法的工作手段是有缺陷的,正义应当处于竞争法的中心地位,竞争法应当关心力量关系、保护弱者不受强者损害等。继之,本文就费肯杰的观点进行了评论,认为费肯杰的一些表述可能导致对其观点的误解,指出费肯杰有关正义在竞争法中的中心地位的观点需要加强论证以取得更多认同,"更为经济的方法"在欧洲的推行是由于经济全球化和欧洲一体化的需要,而不认同欧洲竞争法传统价值的潮流是使费肯杰的主张缺乏广泛认同的原因之一。作者最后得出结论,费肯杰的观点和工作极具价值,竞争法不应当对此忽视。

The article summarizes Wolfgang Fikentscher’s perspectives and insights expressed in his works. Wholly speaking, from the anthropological perspective, Fikentscher argues that European competition law should pay more attention to “a less economic approach”,given that Europe has unique experience and conditions. His scholarship is rooted into profound philosophical underpinning. In his view, neo-classical economics has significant deficiencies as a guide to the task of competition law, the central role given to economics in the more economic ap-proach should be replaced by justice, power relationships should be concerned to protect the weak against abuses of power by the strong and so on. The article in the following section comments on Fikentscher＇s propositions, and argues that some of Fikentscher＇s depiction for neo-economics might lead to misunderstanding of his perspectives, and claims about the centrality of justice deserves further support to be widely accepted, the prevalence of “the more economic approach” in Europe is promoted by economic globalization and Europeanization, and the style which ignores the values represented by Fikentscher inevitably forms a barrier to share of his claims. The author fi-nally puts much importance to the value of Fikentscher＇s work and perspectives, and he concludes that competition law should take Fikentscher＇s voice seriously.
