“paternalism”的概念、定义、翻译、参考文献-科学参考

paternalism

Philosophy

Government as by a benign parent. The contentious feature is that the parent has traditionally the right and indeed the duty to overrule the children’s preferences in the name of their real or true interests, which they may not be mature enough to perceive. (Paternalism in this sense is not gender-specific: it might equally be called maternalism, since a similar right and duty invests in the mother.) Paternalist forms of patronage (gift giving, charitable involvement, provision of amenities and institutions) have frequently had the function of disguising naked relationships of domination, e.g. between capitalists and their workers, husbands and wives, or colonialists and the colonized. But see also Ulysses (sirens).

Economics

The attitude favouring laws and policies which seek to control people’s actions, overriding their preferences for their own good. An example is a central planner whose utility, or welfare function, depends on the decision variables of the individual agents, rather than on their utility levels. In the overlapping generations economy the paternalistic altruism of a parent is modelled, for example, by including in their utility function the lifetime consumption or income of their offspring, rather than the offspring’s utility level; the latter approach is non-paternalistic altruism.
