講座主題:儒學傳播與制度轉型——非正式制度矯正了正式制度失靈嗎?
摘要:近來,有關考察非正式制度與正式制度交互作用的前沿研究為我們理解國家能力培養與制度失靈提供了新的認知思路與理論洞見,但相關的因果識别與實證工作卻難以建構。基于四川土司制與郡縣制長期并存這一獨特的曆史史實,本文利用其縣(區)級曆史數據估計了非正式制度的典型代表——儒家文化傳播如何促進了地區的制度轉型,進而矯正了失靈行為。研究發現,盡管土司制不利于當地地區的經濟發展與福利建設,但儒家文化規範對于這一制度扭曲卻發揮出重要的矯正作用,顯著促進了當地改土歸流的轉型可能性。我們認為,理解儒家文化這一影響邏輯的背後機制在于,一方面,官方文化在當地的傳播促進了地區科舉制的建設與完善,從而加強了該地區的政治精英選拔與地方治理;而另一方面,儒家文化下的國家意識蔓延對于加劇地方割據勢力與中原王朝的統治利益矛盾具有促進作用,從而在雙邊沖突中武力征服對割據地區的制度選擇與實行具有重要影響。

講座主題:Commercial Social Capital and Individual Investment Choices: Historical evidence from the Shanghuis in the Late Qing Dynasty in China
摘要:How to explain private investment choices in the financial market is one of the important issues in the field of household finance. Using the unique data of shanghuis, informal financial entities that played an important role in the financial industry in the late Qing Dynasty, this article explores the historical origins that influence contemporary private investment choices in China. We find that the establishment of shanghuis in the late Qing Dynasty can significantly increase the local contemporary residents’ preference and participation scale for the risk assets, but does not exert any actual effect on their investment in risk-free assets. Moreover, with the expansion of shanghuis, this long-term impact becomes more significant. After performing instrumental variable tests and other robust inferences, the above conclusions are still valid. In further tests, the long-term impact of shanghui mainly originates from the following: (i) the establishment of shanghuis makes local investment finance available; (ii) as an important form of social capital, shanghui promotes long-term social trust, and increases individual’s risk-taking ability in the financial market; (iii) the activities of shanghuis improve the financial knowledge and literacy of contemporary individuals, thus promoting individual investment impulse. From the historical perspective, this article provides a branch of new explanation for understanding the individual investment choices and household financial investment imbalance in China today.
