后危机时期欧盟经济治理模式变迁刍议——社会市场经济模式的视角

Transformation of the EU's Economic Governance Model in the Post-Crisis Period-A Perspective of the Social Market Economy Model

欧盟经济治理模式遵循社会市场经济基本原则,重视价格稳定、完全竞争和平衡发展,以保障竞争秩序。共同政策与结构政策是欧盟经济治理的主要手段,但危机表明,随着一体化的加深,欧盟共同政策与结构政策都存在严重的效力不足问题。在此背景下,欧盟继续向社会市场经济模式靠拢,启动经济治理模式的调整,即一方面强化财政纪律等共同政策,维护竞争秩序;另一方面加大结构政策力度,并引入稳定政策工具,确保竞争秩序所处宏观经济环境的稳定。

The EU’s economic governance model follows the fundamental principles of social market economy,placing a high value on price stability,perfect competition and balanced development,so as to ensure a fully competitive order.The financial crisis shows that with the deepening of integration,a serious lack of effectiveness exists within both the common policy and structural policy of the EU,the major instruments of the EU’s economic governance.Under this background,the EU continues to move closer to the social market economy model and starts adjusting its economic governance model.On the one hand,the common policy like fiscal discipline has been strengthened to maintain the competitive order.On the other hand,the structural policy has been extended,with the stability policy tools having been introduced in order to ensure the stability of the macro-economic environment where the competition order is located.
