On Characteristics of Law and Ethics under Circumstances of Market Economy Gong Qun 1999, (7):  12-17,80.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (758KB) ( )   The author maintains that with the transition from planned economy to market economy,the latter being one through legal processes,it is necessary that we reconsider the issues of law and ethics whose characteristics are reflected in principles of alternative subjectivity and exchange at equal value. Traditionally the power of law and ethics rests with the family and the society in which duties are over-emphasized and rights of individuals eliminated. However,in market economy mutual acknowledgement and mutual respect is a pre-requisite. Therefore,there arise concepts of ethics that value honesty and trust and system of law that protects the economy of honesty and trust. The principle of exchange at equal value rests on respect of individual rights. And it is on the same basis that the modern law system is formed. The modern law is subject to the relevant economic system,and the ethics belongs to the economic system in which it is found. Likewise,the ethical basis of market economy lies in recognition of respect in general and special benefits in particular,which consists of basic values of economic and social lives.

Market transition theory may shed light on studies of organizational changes in the following aspects:1,research of economic or social problems under circumstances of market transition requires accurate understanding of practical principles of economic organization and its changes;2,research of structural innovation related to growth of the market demands attention to the starting conditions and nature of market environment during the course of market transition. The three themes and their special forms in the given patterns of structural reform or social environment not only affect income distribution and some issues of general inequality,they are also closely related to changes and reconstruction of organizations.

Aspects hat Account for Sustained Development of Capitalist Economy Fang Ning 1999, (7):  30-35,80.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (804KB) ( )   The sustained economic development in advanced countries in the West after World War II has been caused by several reasons. First,industrialization of third world countries has started a large-scale flow of the capital of the West across the world. Secondly,new revolution of technology and the policy of financial expansion practiced in capitalist countries have provided new source of production force for economic recovery and sustained development,making it possible for adjustment of productive relation accordingly. The effect of all this has successfully promoted globalization of the capital and,in turn,quickened expansion of the mode of capitalist production,and thus paved way for further development of capitalist economy.
