要认真看书学习的一例:卢卡斯论经济发展的力学

中文的荒唐翻译: 论经济发展的机制

中文的正确翻译:论经济发展的力学, 因为卢卡斯在此文中通过几个模型讨论机器人(Robots)如何得到不同的平衡经济增长率和路径. 他在文章里已明确指出, 我们研究具体国家的经济,文化,历史等等是太复杂了.我们不妨先研究机器人(Robots).卢卡斯的敏锐,尖刻,幽默.....真是活龙活现!全世界的同卢卡斯(1937年生)一辈的经济学家只有他一人有如此的大手笔:正如Stanley Fischer (MIT 教授,曾任世界银行首席经济学家和IMF的第二把手,现任以色列中央银行行长)所言!

要认真看书啊, 同学们!

On the Mechanics of Economics Development

by Robert E. Lucas, Jr. JME, 1988

Abstract

This paper considers the prospects for constructing a neoclassical theory of growth and international trade that is consistent with some of the main features of economic development. Three models are considered and compared to evidence: a model emphasizing physical capital accumulation and technological change, a model emphasizing human capital accumulation through schooling, and a model emphasizing specialized human capital accumulation through learning-by-doing.
