COMPUTATIONAL CONTROVERSIES IN DISEQUILIBRIUM AND SHORTAGE MODELLING OF CENTRALLY PLANNED ECONOMIES
指出中央计划经济非均衡与短缺模型中的许多争议源于不可比的估计方法，而非模型理论本身，改进计算技术和统计检验可解决这些争议。
Abstract. Most disequilibrium and shortage models of centrally planned economies fall into three categories: testable excess demand (the Portes school), disequilibrium indicators, and Kornai's economics of shortage. These models have generated numerous controversies and conflicting empirical results. However, this paper argues that some disputes are not caused by the theoretical features of the models but rather by the utilisation of different estimation methods that are not directly comparable. This suggests that several controversies are more apparent than real and can be resolved through the improvement of computational techniques and statistical hypothesis testing theory.
