摘要
当下众多领域的学者们针对公平与效率所做的探讨,在很大程度上囿于经济学(家)所关注的、对以经济收入为主要对象的劳动成果的分配和对自然资源的(行政/计划)配置。对这种意义上的分配之强调,一方面使得对这一问题的研究陷入一种“三律背反”式的教条预设,另一方面也给经济学(家)向社会其他领域的谮越打开了一扇方便之门,从而直接影响和威胁着当前中国社会对“公正/正义”所应有的倡导和诉求。从政治哲学的角度看,在一个社会系统当中,公平与效率本不属同一个逻辑层次,一个社会对公正的诉求以及社会制度的公正安排,远高于对社会生产效率的欲求;不能简单地用表示处在同一逻辑层次的“兼顾”或“优先”等字眼来给它们进行简单地排序。维护公平是政府的天职,对公平打折扣是政府的失责,任何超越公平的发展,都可导致滑向全权主义(to-talitarianism)的危险。
While studying fairness (justice) and efficiency, most contemporary scholars have confined themselves to the distribution of the fruit of labor and natural resources like those economists. This kind of study will fall into a dogmatic presupposition on the one hand, and on the other will open a door for economists to enter into other fields they do not always understand, which will directly influence and threaten the desirable fairness in China. From the perspective of political philosophy, fairness and efficiency are not on the same level, either socially or logically, because a society's appeal to fairness is at a higher level than the demand for its production efficiency. Such terms like 'mutual benefits' and 'priority' are not suitable in this field. The maintenance of fairness is the bounden duty of the government, and any development without fairness may lead to totalitarianism.
