行政垄断是具有中国特色社会主义制度下的一个特有概念,行政垄断这一概念最早在上世纪80年代由我国一位经济学者提出的。后来法学界认为中国的社会经济现象完全和西方经济垄断现象不同,所以采用了行政垄断的概念,将行业壁垒、地区壁垒、政府限制交易或者强制交易、政府专有交易看作是行政垄断。 Administrative monopoly is a unique concept under the socialist system with Chinese characteristics. The concept of administrative monopoly was first proposed by one of our country’s economists in the 1980s. Later, the law circles thought that China’s social and economic phenomena completely differed from those of western economic monopolies. Therefore, the concept of administrative monopoly was adopted to treat industry barriers, regional barriers, government restricted transactions or forced transactions and government proprietary transactions as administrative monopolies.
