n 经济学的思维方式不承认客观成本！ n “事物”根本没有成本。如果你非要认为事物
的确有成本，并且准备用一个例子来证明你的 观点，你就差不多肯定是在偷换概念，用一个 不被注意的行为替换某个事物，硬给它加上一 个成本。
8
Costs are Tied to Actions, Not Things
n 例如，一个棒球的成本是什么？你说："10美 元。"但是，你的意思是说，在当地一家体育 用品商店里购买一个大联盟官方指定的棒球的 成本是10美元。因为购买是一个行为，所以这 个行为需要以其他机会为代价，从而发生了成 本。请注意这里引入了行为。棒球的成本因行 为的不同而改变。制造一个棒球的成本就不一 样。销售一个棒球的成本又不一样。
9
Costs are Tied to Actions, Not Things
n 成本总是对某人而言的成本。 n The true cost of things stems from a failure to
recognize that only actions have cost, and that actions can entail different costs for different people.（关于事物的"真实成本"有大 量无效的辩论，这都是因为辩论者没能认识到 只有行为才有成本，而行为对不同的人有不同 的成本。）

Introduction
n 经济学的供给理论和需求理论从本质上来说没 有什么区别。
n The theory of supply, like demand theory, assumes that decision makers face alternatives and choices.

n Question
q 没有协作的专业化可行吗? q 没有协作的专业化是通向混乱之路，而不是通向财
富之路。 q 人们只是按照自己的资源和能力，根据自己特定的
计划追逐一己之利，与此同时，对旁人的利益、资 源和能力几乎一无所知，而每个人自己的计划的成 功又有赖于与旁人的合作，这样做能成功吗？
q 没有人控制这个过程，然而这个过程却能协调全部个人决策。 尽管这个过程并不完美，大多数人还是能成功抵达目的地。

n 无意的结果（Unintended consequences）
q 每个人都想到达各自的目的地，一路上都要不断作决定， 都在路上与他人进行协作。但是，没有人计划过交通的 总体流量。这一点不是哪一个人能控制的。就算有一个 虚拟的中央交通调度员，也不可能通过详细指示每个人 该怎么做来保证有序的交通。人们“不过是在开车”， 他们无意的结果呈现为复杂的路况。

经济学的思维方式英文版
Introduction
Economics is the study of how individuals, businesses, and governments allocate resources to satisfy their wants and needs. It involves analyzing how people make decisions in the face of scarcity, and how they interact with one another in markets. The study of economics provides a framework for understanding the behavior of individuals and firms, as well as the workings of entire economies.
Thinking Like an Economist
To think like an economist means to approach problems in a systematic way, using economic principles to analyze data and make decisions. This involves understanding the concept of opportunity cost, which is the value of the next best alternative forgone when a decision is made. Economists also use models to simplify complex economic phenomena, making it easier to analyze them.
The Role of Markets
Markets are central to economic thinking, as they are where buyers and sellers come together to exchange goods and services. The price mechanism plays a critical role in allocating resources efficiently in a market economy. Prices signal information about supply and demand conditions, helping individuals make informed decisions about what goods and services to produce or consume.
The Importance of Incentives
Incentives are central to economic thinking, as they motivate individuals to act in certain ways. Positive incentives encourage behavior that benefits society, while negative incentives discourage behavior that harms society. Understanding incentives helps economists design policies that promote desirable outcomes.
Microeconomics vs Macroeconomics
Microeconomics is concerned with individual decision-making units such as households and firms. It examines how these units
allocate resources among competing uses and how they interact with one another in markets. Macroeconomics is concerned with the overall performance of an economy, including issues such as inflation, unemployment, and economic growth.
Economic Systems
There are three main types of economic systems: market economies, command economies, and mixed economies. In a market economy, prices determine what goods and services are produced and who consumes them. In a command economy, government planners make these decisions. Mixed economies combine elements of both market and command economies.
International Trade
International trade is an important area of study in economics, as it involves the exchange of goods and services between countries. International trade can benefit all parties involved by allowing for specialization and increased efficiency. However, it can also lead to job losses in certain industries and create winners and losers.
Conclusion
In conclusion, thinking like an economist involves approaching problems in a systematic way using economic principles. Understanding the role of markets, incentives, microeconomics, macroeconomics, economic systems, and international trade is essential to developing a comprehensive understanding of economics. By applying economic thinking to real-world problems, economists can help policymakers design policies that promote economic growth and improve overall wellbeing.。
