An Analysis of Marxist Theory of Endogenous Money WANG Lu 2007, (5):  29-35.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (972KB) ( )   In the history of studies on economics the controversies over the issue of money have been given rise to by the traditional dichotomy method which long emphasized real economy in economics.The mainstream economics can only consider money as cash in the theory of Walrus’s general equilibrium because of the hypothesis of exogenous money supply.This has resulted in the consequent logical criticism in the Cambridge Capital Controversies in the 1950s and 1960s.Publication of the work "The General Theory of Employment Interest and Money" signals Keynes’ intention to refute the dichotomy analysis method and break off from the neo-classical analysis method of real objects.However,because of the lack of a theoretical foundation in value and distribution theories,he was unable to establish a productive theory of monetary economy.By contrast,based on the labor theory of value Marxian economics has generated the theory of endogenous money that took the relations of capitalist economy or market economy as the foundation of analysis by integrating the theories of value and money.

Issues on the Teaching Methods of “A Survey of the Chinese Modern and Contemporary History” ZHU Zhi-min 2007, (5):  61-66.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (1027KB) ( )   The principle of teaching the historical logic is a distinctive feature of university history class,which is a criterion to distinguish the university course "A Survey of Chinese Modern and Contemporary History" from the middle school course "History of Modern and Contemporary Chinese History".This principle also serves for two other purposes.One is to function as a link between these two courses,the other is to avoid repeating some of the contents in the course "A Survey of Important Theories of Mao Zedong Thought,Deng Xiaoping Theory,and Three Represents",since the latter emphasizes on "teaching the theoretical logic".The author concludes that explaining the historical logic by historical facts is an effective way to improve the quality of the course.

The Level of Institutional Analysis and the Study of International Institutions TIAN Ye 2007, (5):  82-87.  DOI: Abstract ( )   PDF (1093KB) ( )   The theories of new institutionalism in economics and political science usually focus on a particular institutional level and take a higher institutional level as given.From the commonly accepted view about levels of international institutions,constitutive institutions are higher than regulative institutions,and general institutions are higher than specific institutions.This perspective of classifying different institutional levels sheds light on our understanding of the contestation between neoliberal institutionalism and constructivism in the study of international institutions.
