1600美元还是374美元? 1993年6月,国际货币基金组织发表了用购买力平价法计算的1992年中国国民生产总值(GNP),其数字为1.7万亿美元,人均GNP为1600多美元,该组织据此认为,中国已是仅次于美国、日本的第三大经济强国。 这种新的对中国经济实力的估算,立刻引来了外交及统计部门的巨大反响。7月上旬,新华社连续发通稿,引用国家统计局新闻发言人的谈话强调:“中国仍处于低收入国家水平。”并指出按现行汇率计算,中国人均GNP仅为374美元。 于是,1600美元还是374美元?成了一个问题。它不但成为有关经济学家在1993年下半年的研究焦

Accordingly, the organization believes that China is already the third largest economic power behind the United States and Japan. This new estimate of China’s economic strength immediately brought great repercussions from the diplomatic and statistical departments. In early July, the Xinhua News Agency made a series of contributions, quoting a spokesman for the State Statistics Bureau as saying: “China is still at a low-income country level,” and pointed out that according to the current exchange rate, China’s GNP per capita is only 374 U.S. dollars. So, 1600 US dollars or 374 US dollars? Has become a problem. It not only became a research focus on economists in the second half of 1993
