现在国外还存在着political economy这个概念，

不过其实就是指理论经济学和应用经济学。

谢林是研究博弈论的。

他写过一本冲突的策略。

还有一些需要补充的,如下:

political economy 和ECONOMICS 互相指代已经是很久远年代的事情了__比如JPE创刊的时代.

现在提到"political economy ",一般是作为一个FIELD意义上使用的.

"

The allocations of markets and other economic institutions are subject to the political environment in which these institutions operate. Students interested in understanding the effects and the design of economic policies should have an appreciation of the political context in which these policies are set. At the same time, students interested in political outcomes and institutions must consider the economic forces that interact with the political realm. Work in political economy aims to develop theoretical and empirical understanding of the connections between economics and politics. Methodologically, recent research in both economics and political science has drawn on a common set of tools. Both disciplines have emphasized the strategic interaction of agents in political and market environments,. Both have relied on the paradigm of the optimizing agent, with game theory and equilibrium analysis providing a common theoretical framework. Empirical work in both disciplines relies on similar statistical and econometric methods. "

上面这一段话,基本上描述了现在主流经济学所说的"political economy "的内涵!!!

理解了_"Work in political economy aims to develop theoretical and empirical understanding of the connections between economics and politics.

这一段话,就知道现在political economy 是在研究什么了!!!

如下的这些情况,楼主不太清楚.

国外大部分经济系中都设置了一些讲座教授席位. 都是一些捐助人捐赠设立的,经常会看到"****** Professor of Political Economy"这样的讲座教授席位.

比如哈佛经济系主任_____Alberto Alesina 的讲座教授席位.是"Nathaniel Ropes Professor of Political Economy"

Alberto Alesina 本人的研究领域确实就是 Political Economy.

更多的情况是,一个教授的研究领域并不是Political Economy,但其讲座教授席位仍然是"****** Professor of Political Economy"这样的称谓.

还有一种情况,就是很多政治科学系以及公共管理系的研究Political Economy的学者,也称之为Professor of Political Economy, Assistant Professor OF Political economy......... 在多数情况下并不是讲座教授的称谓.
