Abstract

Az elmúlt évtizedek nagy privatizációs hullámának részleges visszafordulása, a 2008-as válságot követő államosítások ismét felvetik a kérdést: fontos-e, hogy a vállalatok állami vagy magánkézben vannak? Ez az írás amellett érvel, hogy a problémát érdemes két metszetben vizsgálni: az egyik a tulajdonnak a társadalmi- gazdasági rendszerek meghatározásában játszott szerepe, a másik a cégek működésére gyakorolt hatás. Néhány elméleti megközelítés és a közelmúlt tapasztalatainak felelevenítése ahhoz a következtetéshez vezet, hogy a rendszerek meghatározásában számít a domináns tulajdonforma állami vagy magánjellege. Ennek változása ugyanis a 20. századi Európában mindig a rendszerváltozásoknak vagy a kapitalizmus formaváltásainak egyik jele és lényeges eleme volt. A vállalatok működése szempontjából azonban megfontolandó az a feltételezés, hogy az állami és magántulajdon dichotómiája elhalványul, ezen a szinten a tulajdon már nem alapvető fontosságú. A nagy hullámok elcsendesedése idején nem annyira az állami és magántulajdon arányainak, mint inkább a tartalmuknak a módosulását érdemes figyelni. Ez a megközelítés hozzásegíthet a jelenlegi magyar gazdasági rendszer sajátosságainak jobb megértéséhez is.* Journal of Economics Literature (JEL) kód: H82, L32, P26.
