报告人简介：
Dr. Horst Hanusch is a German economist known for his contributions to Neo-Schumpeterian and innovation
economics. He has played a major role in advancing evolutionary economic theory by extending Joseph A. Schumpeter's
concept of creative destruction into a broader institutional and policy-oriented framework, emphasizing the dynamic
interaction between innovation, structural change, and long-term economic development. From 1974 to 2010, he served as
Full Professor of Economics at the University of Augsburg and was Vice President from 2007 to 2011. Since April 2010, he
has been Professor Emeritus at the University of Augsburg, Institute of Economic Research.
He was President of the International Institute of Public Finance (1994–1997) and is now one of its Honorary Presidents. In
1986 he co-founded the International J. A. Schumpeter Society with Wolfgang Stolper and served as Secretary General until
2022. He also founded the Journal of Evolutionary Economics in 1991 and currently serves as its Founding Editor, and
co-founded the Lisbon Civic Forum in 2006.
Dr. Horst Hanuschdeveloped Comprehensive Neo-Schumpeterian Economics (CNSE) and later contributed to
Post-Schumpeterian Economics (PSE), integrating innovation, institutions, and ecological sustainability to address the
transition from "brown" to "green" economies.
报告内容简介：
The paper develops Post-Schumpeterian Economics (PSE) as a theoretical and empirical framework to reconcile
innovation -driven growth with the ecological limits posed by climate change. It starts from the ambivalence of modern
development:
technological progress generates dynamism and prosperity while simultaneously intensifying ecological risks . This tension
reflects the intellectual legacies of Joseph A. Schumpeter, who emphasized creative destruction and entrepreneurial
innovation, and Nicholas Georgescu-Roegen, who highlighted thermodynamic and ecological constraints.
While Neo-Schumpeterian approaches successfully explain structural change and innovation systems, they largely neglect
global public goods such as climate stability. PSE extends this tradition by conceptualizing climate as a global common good
and climate change as a social cost that must be internalized. Development is thus redefined as a transnational process
combining private goods with global public goods.
Two reform areas are central: the price system and the innovation system. Beyond internalizing external costs through
"true prices" or emissions trading, PSE emphasizes proactive green innovation policy. A "supervising state" should act as
catalyst and coordinator to foster sustainable technologies. The objective is not degrowth but an ecologically redirected
process of creative destruction that unites prosperity with planetary security.
