是否存在独立于人的主观意志之外的客观经济规律?——关于经济学的出发点和经济规律的思考

经济学的基本前提和出发点是建立在主观因素而不是所谓客观因素的基础之上的,但这并不妨碍经济学作为有效的工具用以分析现实经济的客观性和实用性。独立于人的主观意志之外的所谓客观经济规律是不存在的,经济规律就是以大多数人的(而不是个别人的)意志为转移的规律。任何科学都不能排除主观性,独立于人的意识之外的客观世界也是不存在的。人们之所以对此感到难以理解,是因为从某种程度上来说我们都是自己先入之见(知识)的俘虏,一种观念和思维方式的改变往往不是因为旧理论不符合事实,而是一种新理论的最终出现!

Are there objective economic laws independent of man's subjective will?—on the point of departure of economics and economic laws

The basic premise and point of departure of economics are established on the foundation of subjective factors instead of the supposed objective factors. But this doesn't reduce the objectivity and practicability of economics as a valid tool for analyzing real-life economy. The so-called objective economic laws independent of man's subjective will have never existed. Economics laws depend on the will of the majority (not few) of people. Actually no science can exclude the subjective, even an objective world independent of man's consciousness is nonexistent. The reason people feel hard to comprehend this standpoint is that we are, to a certain extent, the captives of pre-formed ideas as we call “knowledge.” An idea or a way of thinking changes often because of the final appearance of new theories, not because the old theories fail to correspond with facts.
