第一章引论一、经济学的基本问题对于经济学的定义,不同的经济学家有不同的表述方式,但它们都离不开经济学研究的基本问题—资源配置。

简单地说,经济学就是研究如何将稀缺的资源分配于不同的用途,以满足经济主体多样化需求的科学。

经济学研究的起点是建立在资源稀缺性这一前提条件下的。

在任何一个时代或任何一个地区,相对于经济主体消费尽可能多的商品和服务的愿望,资源总是稀缺的,人们的欲望总是超过实际的生产能力。

每一个经济都面临着资源稀缺性的问题。

这里说的“缺性”并不是指资源在绝对数量上的多寡,而是指相对于人们无限多样、不断上升的需要来说,用以满足这些需要的手段,即有用的资源,是相对不足的。

同时,在既定的技术条件下,可利用的资源是相对不足、有限的。

在资源稀缺性这一前提下,经济学研究的一个基本问题就是资源配置问题。

有用的资源往往都具有一种以上的用途。

人们将在稀缺资源的多种用途中进行权衡比较,根据自己各种需要的强弱缓急做出选择,找到对自己最为有利的配置方法。

总之,在经济学中,人们始终被要求做出各种各样的选择,消费者在一定的收入条件下不仅要在不同商品的消费中进行选择,还要在消费和储蓄间做出选择;社会在既定的资源条件下,不仅要在不同商品的生产中进行选择,还要在消费和投资中进行选择。

综上所述,由于资源的稀缺性,每个经济必须解决资源配置问题,归纳起来,就是下面三个基本经济问题:1、生产什么?(What?)要解决的问题是如何选择用总量既定的生产资源来生产哪些产品,并最大限度地满足人们的需要;2、如何生产?(How?)要解决的问题是在生产同一种产品的许多中种不同方法中选择一种最有效率的方法,这既要从技术角度考虑,也要从经济角度考虑;3、为谁生产?(For whom?)在相当程度上是一个收入分配问题,对此,不同社会制度、不同风俗习惯、不同道德规范会有不同的看法。

二、微观经济学的特点1、研究对象:个体经济单位经济学有两大分支:微观经济学和宏观经济学。

经济人的含义
均衡即平衡,本是物理学中的一个概念,指的是作用 在质点上的所有力的合力(或矢量和)为零时的状况。
经济学的均衡是指经济行为主体意识到进一步改变决 策行为已不能获得更多利益,从而不再改变其行为的 状态。
包括局部均衡分析和一般均衡分析。

均衡分析 equilibrium analysis
定义:对经济变量均衡的形成和变动条件的分析叫做 均衡分析。
选择
把稀缺的经济资源从多种用途中挑选一种或几种加以利用 的过程就是经济学中所说的选择(choice) 。
(1)经济学中所说的选择是指对稀缺资源(经济资源) 的选择,自由物品不存在选择;
(2)经济资源可以被选择到几种用途中,而不一定只有 一种;
(3)选择同时也意味着放弃,换句话说,选择也需要付 出代价。
