No Razor's Edge: Reexamining Alwyn Young's Evidence for Increasing Interprovincial Trade Barriers in China
批判性检验了Alwyn Young关于中国改革时期省际贸易壁垒增加的五个论点及其证据，发现每个论点都有问题且证据不稳健，与美国比较显示中国证据在正常范围内。
Alwyn Young (2000) argues that barriers to interprovincial trade in China have increased during the reform period. This paper critically examines each of his five arguments and the evidence he presents. In all five instances, the argument is problematic and the evidence not robust. A comparison with the United States shows the Chinese evidence to be well within the range of that of a normal, relatively integrated large economy.
