中国的改革取得了亘古未有的经济奇迹。那是因为,中国人是幸运的,他们没有听从国际货币基金组织的指令;中国人也是精明的,他们在改革中一直注意到如何使社会代价最小。假如中国当初选择了“休克疗法”,那么它将陷入的经济灾难将比东欧国家大得多。然而今天,他们能否继续保持经济改革的根本动力呢? China’s reform has won the unprecedented economic miracle. That is because Chinese people are fortunate. They did not follow the International Monetary Fund’s directive. Chinese people are also astute. In their reforms, they have always noticed how to minimize social costs. If China had chosen “shock therapy”, then it would fall into a much larger economic catastrophe than in Eastern Europe. However, today, can they continue to maintain the fundamental motivation for economic reform?
