摘　　要：西方文学史中的鲁滨逊闪耀着资本主义精神和基督教伦理光辉,而在西方经济学中的鲁滨逊则被刻画为以个人利益最大化为原则的“经济人”。在研究经济思想史中“鲁滨逊经济”这一经济学模型如何变得完善、规范、严谨的过程中,揭示其逐渐脱离原著、脱离现实的本质,探讨其体现出的个人主义方法论特征,从而管窥西方经济学从古典政治经济学到新古典经济学的转变。对经济学方法论中的理想化抽象进行反思,认为“鲁滨逊经济”既有其合理性,也有局限性;而这种反思或将有助于主流经济学突破瓶颈和挑战,酝酿新的发展或革命。Though the original Robinson Crusoe in the history of Western literature bears the spirit of capitalism and the brilliance of Christian ethics,this book character is depicted as an“economic man”holding to the principle of maximizing self-interest in Western economics.This paper illustrates how the economic model of“Robison Crusoe economy”gradually deviated from the novel—and even further away from the reality—by elaborating its progress of becoming perfect,normalized and rigorous in the history of economic thoughts,and discusses its feature of individualistic methodology,so as to get a glimpse of how Western economics transformed from classical political economy to neoclassical economics.Alfter reflecting upon the idealized abstraction in economic methodology,this paper points out both the rationality and limitations of“Robinson Crusoe economy”,making an efort to help orthodox economics break through its bottleneck and challenges to get prepared for a new phase of development or revolution.
