斯蒂格利茨认为:“提倡竞争比改革所有制更重要。”中国和俄罗斯的经济改革实践已经非常充分地证明了这一点。中国扩大了竞争的范围,并没有将国有企业私有化。相反,俄罗斯将大部分国有企业私有化,却没有促进竞争。两国采取了不同的经济改革政策,他们的结果却相差很悬殊。中国和俄罗斯的经验,使西方的传统经济理论陷入了困境。 Stiglitz argues that “promoting competition is more important than reforming ownership.” This has been proved very well by the economic reform practices of China and Russia. China expanded the scope of competition and did not privatize state-owned enterprises. On the contrary, Russia privatized most state-owned enterprises but did not promote competition. The two countries adopted different economic reform policies, but their results are very different. The experiences of China and Russia have plunged Western traditional economic theory into a dilemma.
