我们需要什么样的产业政策?——兼论林毅夫与张维迎有关产业政策的争议

Which Industrial Policy Do We Need? Discussion about Industrial Policy between Lin Yifu and Zhang Weiying

林毅夫和张维迎有关产业政策的论战是2016年经济研究的热点问题之一,前者推崇产业政策,倡导对拥有潜在比较优势的产业实施产业政策保护,以鼓励创新、扶持幼稚产业成长;后者从经济学范式、创新的不可预期性和政府官员的委托代理机制的角度,论证了产业政策的无效性。通过对于这场论战双方观点的综述,本文结合现代西方经济学发展的历史,提出引入竞争性产业政策,把市场机制和政府职能有机结合起来,实现二人观点的调和,并从理论上论证中国特色市场经济体制的思想本质。

In 2016,the discussion about the availability of the industrial policy between Lin Yifu and Zhang Weiying has become the focus of the economic research. The former praised the industrial policy highly and advocated the government to support the industries with potential comparative advantage to encourage the innovative activity and accelerate the development of the infant industries; the latter held opposite opinions to the industrial policy with the angle of the economic paradigm,the unpredictability of the innovation and the agency mechanism of the officials. By reviewing the opinions of this discussion,and combining the history of the modern economy,this paper puts forward introducing the competitive industrial policy and compromising the market mechanism and the governmental functions to make concessions to their opinion. At last,it extracted the ideological implication of the socialist market economy with Chinese characters.
