The debate about the effect of corruption on income distribution suffers from a number of problems. The main issues are the use of perception-based measures of corruption, which implicitly favours one side of the debate, and a too narrow conception of agency involved in corruption. By relying on direct and grained evidence of bribery in 106 industrialised and industrialising states, and by appreciating the role of agency on the part of bribers, this article finds support for an emerging view that the effect of corruption on inequality is conditional. Under poor institutional conditions, entrepreneurial-related bribery is associated with an increase in the relative income share of the poorest 40%, mitigating disposable income inequality. The results are robust to the use of different income-distribution measures and data sources, as well as different specifications. While wide-spread bribery and corruption in general may be detrimental to longer term socio-economic progress, it is important not to ignore the incentives and constraints that lead people to use bribery as a means of survival.
关于腐败对收入分配影响的辩论存在许多问题。主要问题是使用基于感知的腐败衡量标准,这隐含地有利于辩论的一方,以及对参与腐败的机构的概念过于狭隘。本文依靠106个工业化和工业化国家贿赂的直接和精细证据,并通过理解贿赂者的代理作用,为一种新出现的观点找到了支持,即腐败对不平等的影响是有条件的。在糟糕的制度条件下,与创业相关的贿赂与最贫穷的40%的人相对收入份额的增加有关,从而缓解了可支配收入的不平等。结果对于使用不同的收入分配指标和数据来源以及不同的规范是稳健的。尽管普遍存在的贿赂和腐败可能不利于长期的社会经济进步,但重要的是不要忽视导致人们将贿赂作为生存手段的激励和制约因素。

Rethinking drugs 重新思考毒品

Abstract Discussions of drugs in international political economy tend to focus on the relative advantages and disadvantages of particular regulatory regimes and governmental policy approaches. While the particular regulation(s) and social context(s) differ, the drug literature is in this sense repetitive and neglectful of significant features of the global drug economy. Drawing on social economics, we argue that the neglect of broad and holistic, synthetic, integrative and comparative drug research in IPE stems in part from a research program in which the state is “essentialized”, resulting in drug research that is too narrowly cast. Borrowing from social economics, poststructuralist Marxism, and new materialism, we develop an anti-essentialist approach for thinking about the global drug economy in an effort to reveal aspects of global drug production, distribution and consumption, and the power relations entailed therein, that are currently obscured.
摘要国际政治经济学中对毒品的讨论往往侧重于特定监管制度和政府政策方法的相对优势和劣势。虽然特定的法规和社会背景有所不同,但在这个意义上,毒品文献是重复的,忽略了全球毒品经济的重要特征。在社会经济学的基础上,我们认为IPE中对广泛和整体、综合、综合和比较药物研究的忽视部分源于国家被“本质化”的研究计划,导致药物研究过于狭隘。借鉴社会经济学、后结构主义马克思主义和新唯物主义,我们发展了一种反本质主义的方法来思考全球毒品经济,试图揭示全球毒品生产、分销和消费的各个方面,以及其中所包含的权力关系,而这些方面目前被掩盖了。

The US labor share of income: what shocks matter? 美国劳动力在收入中所占的份额:什么冲击很重要?

We propose a novel methodological approach to disentangle the main structural shocks affecting the US labor share of income. We motivate an SVAR model to derive four structural shocks: aggregate demand, labor supply, shocks to wages, and productivity; and quantify the dynamic responses of the labor share to each structural shock. We find substantial differences between the immediate post-war era and the neoliberal period. In order of magnitude, the labor share responded mainly to productivity, aggregate demand, and shocks to wages during the immediate post-war era; whereas shocks to wages, productivity, and to aggregate demand mattered most during the neoliberal era. These effects are statistically significantly different across the two periods only for wage and productivity shocks. Increased (decreased) sensitivity to wage (productivity) shocks during the neoliberal period suggests that the decline in the labor share is mainly driven by the factors that govern wage setting.
我们提出了一种新的方法来理清影响美国劳动收入份额的主要结构性冲击。我们利用SVAR模型推导出四种结构性冲击:总需求、劳动力供给、工资冲击和生产率冲击;并量化劳动收入占比对每次结构性冲击的动态反应。我们发现战后时期和新自由主义时期之间存在着巨大的差异。从量级上看,劳动收入占比主要与战后时期的生产率、总需求和工资冲击有关;而在新自由主义时代,对工资、生产率和总需求的冲击最为重要。只有在工资和生产率冲击方面,这两个时期的影响在统计上有显著差异。在新自由主义时期,对工资(生产率)冲击的敏感性增加(降低)表明,劳动收入占比的下降主要是由控制工资设定的因素驱动的。

The big cost of big medicine – calculating the rent in private healthcare 大药的大成本——计算私人医疗机构的租金

ABSTRACT As a country, the United States spends significantly more on healthcare than other advanced industrialized countries, and Americans have comparably worse health outcomes. Both are developments of the last four decades. In this paper, we look at how change in antitrust and patent law and thus change in market power in the largest four subsectors of healthcare, hospitals, physician groups, prescription drugs, and net medical insurance, have contributed to the increasing cost of medical care in the United States. We show that the annual rent – the degree to which health care is overpriced as a result of market power – was between 2.47 and 4.30 percent of GDP in 2016 – truly a big cost for big medicine.
作为一个国家,美国在医疗保健方面的支出明显高于其他发达工业化国家,而美国人的健康状况相对较差。两者都是过去四十年的发展。在本文中,我们研究了反托拉斯法和专利法的变化,以及医疗保健、医院、医生团体、处方药和净医疗保险这四个最大的子部门的市场力量的变化,是如何导致美国医疗保健成本上升的。我们的研究表明,2016年,年租金(市场力量导致医疗保健价格过高的程度)占GDP的2.47%至4.30%,这对大型医疗机构来说确实是一笔巨大的成本。

A note on the relationship between additive separability and decomposability in measuring income inequality 关于衡量收入不平等中可加性可分性和可分解性之间关系的说明
IF 1 Q2 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2020-08-06 DOI: 10.1080/00346764.2020.1802055

This note introduces original technical results in the theoretical measurement of inequality by specifying the relationships between additive separability and homotheticity (of measures of welfare closely related to measures of inequality), and decomposability and homogeneity in measures of inequality. More specifically, an interrogation is made of the resonances and dissonances between the classic contributions of Atkinson and Shorrocks, which are key representatives, respectively, of the 'social welfare function' and the 'axiomatic' approaches to measuring inequality. In brief, in the presence of otherwise common assumptions, it is shown that additive separability and homotheticity of welfare are stronger combined conditions than decomposability and homogeneity (of degree zero) of income inequality. The gap between the two, however, can be closed by adding an extra term around total income to the measure of welfare, allowing for wider considerations of the relationship between social welfare, total income, and the distribution of individual incomes.
本文通过具体说明(与不平等测度密切相关的福利测度的)可加可分性和同质性以及不平等测度中的可分解性和同质性之间的关系,介绍了不平等理论测度中的原始技术成果。更具体地说,对阿特金森和肖罗克斯的经典贡献之间的共鸣和不和谐进行了审问,他们分别是衡量不平等的“社会福利函数”和“公理化”方法的关键代表。简言之,在存在其他常见假设的情况下,研究表明,福利的可加可分性和同质性比收入不平等的可分解性和同质性(零度)更强。然而,可以通过在福利衡量标准中增加一个关于总收入的额外术语来缩小两者之间的差距,从而更广泛地考虑社会福利、总收入和个人收入分配之间的关系。

ABSTRACT The distinction between oppression and exploitation is overstated in traditional Marxian theory. Defined in terms of economic advantages gained from unfair bargaining power, exploitation can take manifold forms, characterized by intersections, overlaps, and interactions within complex hierarchical systems in which actors often find themselves in somewhat contradictory positions.
在传统的马克思主义理论中,压迫与剥削的区别被夸大了。根据从不公平的议价能力中获得的经济优势来定义,剥削可以采取多种形式,其特点是在复杂的等级系统中交叉、重叠和相互作用,在这些系统中,参与者经常发现自己处于某种矛盾的位置。

ABSTRACT This essay discusses the nature of, and challenges for, social economics. It begins by exploring how social economics differs from mainstream economics in its goals, definition, and models, and briefly examines the roots of Neoclassical orthodoxy. It then argues that social economists need to take more seriously the human and social nature of our created knowledge. An example from the empirical study of gender and risk preferences illustrates the effects of personal and cultural factors. The essay also argues that social economists have not yet sufficiently challenged the orthodox economics view of the economy as an ethics-free sphere. This view has contributed to increased inequality and a failure to act decisively in response to climate change. A better understanding of where orthodox economics models and methods come from opens up new ways of understanding our search for knowledge and emphasizes the importance of ethics in economic life.
本文讨论了社会经济学的本质及其面临的挑战。本书首先探讨了社会经济学在目标、定义和模型上与主流经济学的不同之处,并简要考察了新古典主义正统的根源。然后,它认为社会经济学家需要更认真地看待我们创造的知识的人性和社会性。一个关于性别和风险偏好的实证研究的例子说明了个人和文化因素的影响。这篇文章还认为,社会经济学家还没有充分挑战正统的经济学观点,即经济是一个没有伦理的领域。这种观点加剧了不平等,也导致各国未能采取果断行动应对气候变化。更好地理解正统经济学模型和方法的来源,为理解我们对知识的追求开辟了新的途径,并强调了伦理在经济生活中的重要性。

‘Give me your watch and I will tell you the time’: crisis and austerity in the European Union from a Bourdieusian perspective “把手表给我,我会告诉你时间”:从布迪厄的角度看欧盟的危机和紧缩
IF 1 Q2 ECONOMICS Pub Date : 2020-07-07 DOI: 10.1080/00346764.2020.1787494

ABSTRACT We investigate crisis and austerity in the context of the European Union (EU) by appealing to the work of Pierre Bourdieu. Evidence suggests that after the recent US and Eurozone economic crises, fiscal consolidation intensified the deterioration of socio-economic conditions in Europe. We turn to analyses versed in the Bourdieusian tradition to explain crises and austerity in relation to the domination of the financial field and the ascendancy of neoliberal policies, processes of symbolic violence and misrecognition, and struggles for symbolic power. We then apply this framework to assess the EU economic governance system and the rhetoric imposed on Member States and social partners to justify austerity. Finally, we discuss ways to confront these conditions by presenting Bourdieu’s conception of the ‘collective intellectual’, who collaborates with other social groups in order to uncover the power relations and inequalities generated by neoliberal policies and to promote alternative economic policies for social welfare.
本文通过对皮埃尔·布迪厄的研究,探讨了欧盟背景下的危机与紧缩政策。有证据表明,在最近的美国和欧元区经济危机之后,财政整顿加剧了欧洲社会经济状况的恶化。我们转向精通布尔迪乌传统的分析,以解释危机和紧缩与金融领域的统治和新自由主义政策的优势、象征性暴力和误认的过程以及象征性权力的斗争有关。然后,我们应用这个框架来评估欧盟的经济治理体系和强加给成员国和社会合作伙伴的言论,以证明紧缩是合理的。最后,我们通过提出布迪厄的“集体知识分子”概念来讨论如何面对这些条件,他们与其他社会群体合作,以揭示新自由主义政策产生的权力关系和不平等,并促进替代的社会福利经济政策。

Economics and climate justice activism: assessing the financial impact of the fossil fuel divestment movement 经济学和气候正义行动主义:评估化石燃料撤资运动的财务影响

ABSTRACT Since 2011, climate activists have advanced divestment campaigns against private fossil fuel corporations that aim to inflict damage on fossil fuel corporations through two channels: stigmatizing them and undermining their financial operations. We focus in this paper on this second purpose, considering the extent to which divestment campaigns have succeeded in inflicting financial damage on fossil fuel corporations. We present descriptive data on the level of divested fossil fuel stocks and bonds as well as econometric analysis of the impact of divestment events on the stock market prices of fossil fuel companies. We find that divestment campaigns have not been successful in inflicting significant economic damage on fossil fuel corporations, even though the movement has been successful in mobilizing public opinion against the fossil fuel corporations.
摘要自2011年以来,气候活动家们发起了针对私营化石燃料公司的撤资运动,旨在通过两个渠道对化石燃料公司造成损害:污名化和破坏其财务运营。考虑到撤资运动在多大程度上成功地对化石燃料公司造成了财务损失,我们在本文中重点关注第二个目的。我们提供了关于撤资化石燃料股票和债券水平的描述性数据,以及撤资事件对化石燃料公司股票市场价格影响的计量经济学分析。我们发现,撤资运动并没有成功地对化石燃料公司造成重大经济损失,尽管该运动成功地动员了公众舆论反对化石燃料公司。

We find that divestment campaigns have not been successful in inflicting significant economic damage on fossil fuel corporations, even though the movement has been successful in mobilizing public opinion against the fossil fuel corporations.","PeriodicalId":46636,"journal":{"name":"REVIEW OF SOCIAL ECONOMY","volume":"80 1","pages":"423 - 460"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/00346764.2020.1785539","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42492845","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT Political theorists have been framing the problems of unfreedom and domination at work as inconsistent with the requirements of political democracy, undermining the democratic potential of the workplace and inducing psychological and status harm. Although these are important insights, political theorists are often unwilling to frame the hierarchical workplace as an issue of distributive justice. This paper, by bringing in the empirical literature on work autonomy, offers a framework to explicate the relationship between freedom at work and the distribution of essential goods at paid work. Through such framework, the paper argues that procedural and substantive freedom at work are essential to the fair distribution of the goods of work. By examining the empirical literature, the paper further argues that there exists a polarization of the goods of work between high-skilled and low-skilled labor, and the polarization offers a pro-tanto justification of workplace democracy for the least advantaged workers.
摘要政治理论家们一直认为,工作中的不自由和支配问题与政治民主的要求不符,破坏了工作场所的民主潜力,并导致心理和地位伤害。尽管这些都是重要的见解,但政治理论家往往不愿意将分级工作场所定义为分配正义的问题。本文通过引入有关工作自主性的实证文献,提供了一个框架来解释工作自由与有偿工作中基本物品分配之间的关系。通过这样的框架,本文认为工作中的程序和实质自由对于工作成果的公平分配至关重要。通过考察实证文献,本文进一步认为,高技能和低技能劳动力之间存在劳动产品的两极分化,这种两极分化为最弱势工人的工作场所民主提供了充分的理由。
