Description

 :新制度经济学以交易成本为核心工具阐释制度生成逻辑,依托效率标准开展制度评价,推动经济学理论从理想化均衡分析转向真实世界的制度研究。但其根植于微观个体与线性逻辑的分析范式,难以适配网络化、平台化、系统化的现代经济形态,存在明显理论局限:该范式无法区分经济运行中的良性摩擦与恶性摩擦,仅聚焦制度运行效率,忽视制度结构合理性、分配公平性与长期可持续性,能够解释制度存在的合理性,却难以界定适配高质量发展与共同富裕的良序制度标准。基于此,本文融合系统科学、整体因果观与网络分析思维,原创性构建交易生态经济学理论体系。本文以交易生态系统为基本分析单元,提出生态交易摩擦成本核心范畴,将其拆解为结构、网络、分配、循环四类系统性耗散成本。研究认为,交易是嵌入多元网络的生态化行为;区别于传统交易成本最小化的效率准则,交易生态经济学以生态交易摩擦成本最优化评判制度质量,追求系统健康、结构合理、分配公平与循环顺畅的综合发展目标,为现代制度经济学提供全新的整体主义分析范式。

Abstract

Abstract: New Institutional Economics explains the logic of institutional genesis with transaction costs as its core tool, evaluates institutions based on efficiency criteria, and shifts economic theory from idealized equilibrium analysis to real-world institutional research. However, rooted in a micro-individual and linear logical analytical paradigm, it struggles to adapt to modern economic forms characterized by networking, platformization, and systematization, revealing evident theoretical limitations: this paradigm cannot distinguish between benign and malignant frictions in economic operations, focuses solely on institutional operational efficiency, and overlooks the rationality of institutional structure, distributive fairness, and long-term sustainability. While it can justify the rationality of institutional existence, it fails to define a well-ordered institutional standard aligned with high-quality development and common prosperity. Based on this, this paper integrates systems science, holistic causality, and network analysis thinking to innovatively construct a theoretical framework of transaction ecology economics. Using the transaction ecosystem as the fundamental analytical unit, it proposes the core category of ecological transaction friction costs, which is further decomposed into four types of systemic dissipative costs: structure, network, distribution, and circulation. The study argues that transactions are ecologicalized behaviors embedded in diverse networks; unlike the traditional efficiency criterion of minimizing transaction costs, transaction ecology economics evaluates institutional quality by optimizing ecological transaction friction costs, pursuing comprehensive development goals of systemic health, rational structure, distributive fairness, and smooth circulation, thereby offering a novel holist analytical paradigm for modern institutional economics.

Keywords: Transactional Ecological Economics; Ecological Transaction Friction Costs; Institutional Quality
