目前,对于新经济的讨论非常多。但是,到底何谓新经济,依然是一个很模糊的问题。大多数人所说的新经济是指由于新技术革命,特别是网络技术、材料科技和生物工程等高新技术发展导致经济形态的变化。在国内,有不少人则干脆把新经济等同于网络经济。事实上,从经济学研究的基本问题来看,把新经济等同于网络经济显然是有问题的。经济学是研究人们如何进行选择,以便使用稀缺的或有限的生产资源来生产各种商品,并把这些物品分配给不同的社会成员以供消费之用。显然,技术并不是解决选择问题的唯一途径,管理和经营的改进也是提高稀缺资源利用效率的重要手段。当前,我们正处于高科技产业、特别是网络技术飞速发展和即将加入WTO的特殊时期,面临着科技创新和制度改革的双重任务,所以对于现阶段的中国企业来说,通过科技进步和制度创新来获得发展都是非常艰巨的全新任务,同时由此带来的经济增长都应该是“新经济”的范畴。 At present, there are many discussions about the new economy. However, what exactly the new economy is still a very vague issue. Most people refer to the new economy as a result of the changes in economic patterns caused by the new technological revolution, especially the high-tech development such as network technology, materials science and technology and bioengineering. In China, many people simply equate the new economy with the network economy. In fact, judging from the basic problems of economic studies, it is clearly problematic to equate the new economy with the network economy. Economics is to study how people make choices in order to use a scarce or limited amount of productive resources to produce a variety of goods and distribute them to different members of society for consumption. Obviously, technology is not the only way to solve the problem of choice. Improvement of management and operation is also an important means to improve the efficiency of the use of scarce resources. At present, we are at a special stage of high-tech industries, especially the rapid development of network technology and its imminent accession to the WTO. We are facing the dual task of technological innovation and institutional reform. Therefore, for the Chinese enterprises at this stage, through scientific and technological progress and institutional innovation It is a very arduous task to obtain development. At the same time, the resulting economic growth should be in the category of “new economy.”
