中国经济转型中的国有企业:不同视角下的制度功能性与可信性

摘要

中国国有企业的制度特性严重背离西方经济学中个人主义的产权原则。而矛盾之处在于,国有企业却似乎在生产率和盈利能力方面皆表现良好。由此,本文从另一个理论视角出发,对国有企业制度进行考察。本文提出两个核心观点:第一,关于“功能性”,长期导向的制度可能有利于提高生产性效率,但可能也会对资源配置效率产生不利影响;第二,关于“可信性”,企业的实际绩效取决于制度与更广泛的发展环境之间的适当匹配。因此,我们发现效率属性是处境特定的。关于处境特定性概念的进一步讨论表明,在确定功能性和可信性时,相对效率是连合性而非结构性的。秉持“原生演化和制度经济学”(Original Evolutionary and Institutional Economics)的精神,本文提出,相对效率的属性本身受制于中国当前政治经济环境的特定“社会评估”。
