法国调节学派:概念体系、理论演进与启示

The French Regulation School: Core Concepts, Theoretical Evolution and Enlightenment

法国调节学派诞生于20世纪70年代的经济危机与经济学危机,以“调节方法”为分析工具,主张把资本主义生产方式当做一个历史过程予以考察。在经济思想史的谱系中,法国调节学派处于继承和发展马克思经济学的位置,审视法国调节学派的成果和新进展有着重要的理论和现实意义。本文从马克思经济学的视角梳理了法国调节学派的概念体系和理论演进,发现资本主义经济的自我调节、更新、发展可以在制度形式、调节方式和积累体制等构成的概念体系中得到证明,而五类危机也蕴含其中;不同代际学者的研究有较强的延续性,从福特主义向后福特主义的转变以及东亚的新兴工业化经济体的出口主义等问题为20世纪学者所关注,而强调国家在调节中扮演着核心角色是21世纪的重要理论转向。法国调节学派在方法论上兼顾经济和超经济因素、打通经济的微观与宏观、强调历史归纳、坚持矛盾分析法,对创新马克思主义经济学有重要的借鉴意义。

Born in the economic crisis and crisis in economics in the 1970s, the French Regulation School(FRS), theoretically inspired by Marx and other radical economists, advocates studying the capitalist mode of production(CMP) as a historical process with the “regulation approach” as a leading paradigm.It is of great significance to examine the achievements and new progress of the FRS.This paper reviews the core concepts and theoretical evolution of the FRS from the perspective of Marxist Economics and finds that the institutional forms, mode of regulation, and accumulation regime jointly determine the capitalist economy’s self-regulation, self-renewal, and self-development, where five types of crises are also involved.There is a strong continuity of studies among scholars of different generations.The transformation from Fordism to Post-Fordism and the exportism as a dominant mode of growth in the East Asian newly industrializing economies(EANICs) have attracted the attention of scholars in the 20 th century while emphasizing the central role of the state in regulation is an essential theoretical turn in the 21 st century.Regarding methodology, the FRS pays attention to complementary economic and extra-economic mechanisms, integrated micro and macro perspectives, historical induction, and contradiction analysis, all of which have important significance for the innovation of Marxist economics.
