Chapter 0265 The older you get, the more shameless you get

Xu Haodong talked eloquently and endlessly, the main purpose was not to instill theories, but to consume time, occupy the position of public opinion, not give Qiu Youke time to speak with Fang Licheng and Zheng Tengyu and others, and even give them a chance to show their faces.

"With regard to the political economy of socialism with Chinese characteristics, there is no doubt that its guiding ideology is Marxism, and its basic analysis and theoretical basis is Marxist political economy. However, on this basis, there can be other theoretical sources of socialist political economy with Chinese characteristics: for example, China's traditional culture; The second is mainstream economics. Both of these points are actually controversial. When it comes to traditional culture, many people think of the restoration of feudal dross, which is indeed an important issue. However, I personally think that if we only use a modern perspective to reinterpret traditional culture, I think it is acceptable. ”

"As for the second point, mainstream economics is the introduction of Western economic theories, not that some people say that this is wrong, but many people have problems grasping the degree in practical application. With regard to upholding Marxism, we must make it clear that only by adhering to Marxism, that is, materialist dialectics, can we truly adhere to Marxism, and if we only agree with Marx's views on human freedom and equal liberation, and do not accept historical materialism, then you can be a Marxist sympathizer or a left-wing liberal, but you cannot be regarded as a real Marxist. ”

"Unfortunately, in the process of introducing Western economics, some scholars have lost their theoretical self-confidence, and are more willing to accept a new set of theories that fall from the sky than to carry out difficult exploration from reality. The political economy of socialism with Chinese characteristics takes Marxism as the guiding ideology, takes Marxist political economy as the main theoretical basis, absorbs and draws on other advanced contents, and at the same time focuses on China's actual practice. ”

"I personally believe that the reason why economics is special is that it does not first fully understand the world, and then transform it, but crosses the river by feeling the stones, and transforms the world while transforming the understanding, and it is the unique practice process of social science that determines this phenomenon. Therefore, various parties with different theoretical viewpoints usually struggle with each other to gain the power of practical practice, and on the other hand, they learn from each other theoretically. As an economics enthusiast, I have never been reluctant to study mainstream economics research methods as long as it helps me better understand the world, so I hope that mainstream economics scholars can also overcome this ideological bias. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Haodong looked at Wang Weiming and Li Zijian who were sitting in the first row of the audience, Wang Li and the two understood and took the lead in applauding, the bosses did not dare to slack off, and the warm applause soon filled the hall.

"Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then I will continue to talk about the issues that are relevant to you. Now there is an argument in society called handing over everything to the market, advocating refined egoism, and the beautiful name of merit-based distribution, which is a very stupid and dangerous bizarre theory. When market demand signals to investors through prices, can the capitalist side abandon or transform the entire capital stock it already owns and immediately redirect it to another profitable sector of production? Is such a transfer feasible in terms of economic cost? Is there a time difference for transfers? When the transfer of equipment, workers, and technology is completed, is it still the same market as it was at the beginning, and does the original high profit still exist? In fact, production always lags behind the changes in market demand. According to neoliberal economic theory and copycat version of the theory of merit-based distribution, there will often be macroeconomic imbalances that fail to achieve the optimal selection of capital. ”

"For example, after the development of the Dawan Islands, the actual capacity of the accommodation industry is limited, limited to 100,000 beds, and the more than 100 scrap ships converted into hotels are enough. For example, after the development of the Dawan Islands, the transportation industry will only need 30 passenger ships and 25 cargo ships, and if the government does not care about it and everyone grabs this piece of cake, the transportation industry will get out of control, resulting in disorderly competition, which is also a macroeconomic disorder. In addition, in order to protect the environment and the affordability of the Greater Bay Islands, the 100,000 tourists a day is a limit, and the government cannot ignore it, and it is impossible for the market to regulate it, and it will not be determined by the price. ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have said so much rhetoric, just to illustrate such a truth, the truth and limitations of any kind of theory, this is not strange, if a theory is regarded as the only benchmark of social life, economic life, it is a bit strange. There is such a so-called economist who knows neither economics nor neoliberal economics on which he lives, who has not read The Wealth of Nations, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, not even Das Kapital, let alone the works of Locke, Kant, Russell, Freud, Weber, Plato, Bacon, Hegel. ”

"I haven't read The Wealth of Nations, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money, and Das Kapital, and as a well-known economist, the foundation is lacking, especially as an expert in thorough and dogmatic neoliberal economics, it seems unreasonable to claim that I have not read The Wealth of Nations, the source of neoliberal economics. If you don't read Locke, Kant, Russell, Freud, Weber, Plato, Bacon, and Hegel, you will affect the foundation of economics, and you don't know that reading Locke, Kant, Russell, Freud, Weber, Plato, Bacon, and Hegel will lay a solid foundation for economics. ”

"As far as I know from my own limited knowledge, Locke is a philosopher, the originator of empiricism, Kant is the founder of classical idealist philosophy, astronomer, Russell is involved in many fields, including philosophy, mathematics, ethics, sociology, education, history, religion and politics, but there is no economics, Freud is the founder of psychoanalysis, belongs to the category of psychology, Plato is an ancient Greek philosopher, Bacon is a philosopher, writer and natural scientist, Hegel is a classical idealist philosopher, His dialectical ideas were absorbed by Marx and became an integral part of Marxist philosophy. Could it be that the foundations of economics come from philosophy, sociology, and psychology? I seriously suspect that this so-called economist doesn't know what the names he lists are for him, he just knows them. ”

After a pause, Xu Haodong made a Leninist gesture and said in a contemptuous tone: "A social discipline, if you regard it as a science, you must respect its research methods and previous research results, and blindly emphasize your own genius, which shows that you lack common sense in economics." Sadly, as usual, a sixty or seventy-year-old man should not be so stubborn, but this so-called economist has no hesitation, could it be that the older people are, the more shameless they become? ”

Speaking of this, Xu Haodong closed his mouth and smiled, because he saw that Liu Junru, Qiu Youke, Fang Licheng and Zheng Tengyu got up and left.
