日本经济10年萧条中的政府失策及其启示

The Mistakes by Japanese Government and the Decade of Its Economic Depression

20世纪90年代初开始日本经济陷入了长期的萧条,经历着二战以后最黑暗的时期,被称为"失去的10年"。关于导致长期危机的原因可谓众说纷纭,但其中不可忽视的则是在危机的治理中政府的种种失策。可以说10多年来日本政府的宏观经济对策屡屡失败,不仅没有挽救日益衰退的经济状况,而且失去了国民对政府的信任,使经济复苏更加乏力,至今无法走出困境。

Since the 90s of the 20th century, Japan’s economy has been in a long period of depression, which is the most difficult time after the Second World War and is called “the Lost Ten Years”. Opinions on the causes of the depression vary but the mistakes made by the government in its controlling the crises cannot be neglected. In the recent ten years, the macroeconomic countermeasures made by the Japanese government have been approved to be ineffective. They failed to stop the declining economic situation and made the people lose their confidence in the government. Japan’s economy lacks the strength in its recovery and finds no way to extricate itself from the difficult position.
