摘要翻译:
近年来,美国公司CEO薪酬过高,使经济学中的公平问题浮出水面。传统观点认为,决定薪酬的劳动力自由市场只关心效率而不是公平。我们提出了另一种理论,表明理想的自由市场环境也促进公平,作为自组织市场动力产生的一种新属性。即使个别雇员可能只关心他或她的工资,而不关心其他人的工资,但在预算限制下的自由市场环境中,所有雇员的集体行动,加上所有公司的利润最大化行动,在亚当·斯密无形的自组织之手的指导下,导致工资的更公平分配。通过与统计热力学的深入联系,我们证明了熵是自由市场环境中公平的适当度量,在理想条件下,熵在均衡状态下达到最大,从而产生工资的对数正态分布,作为一个组织中最公平的工资不平等。

英文摘要:
The excessive compensation packages of CEOs of U.S. corporations in recent years have brought to the foreground the issue of fairness in economics. The conventional wisdom is that the free market for labor, which determines the pay packages, cares only about efficiency and not fairness. We present an alternative theory that shows that an ideal free market environment also promotes fairness, as an emergent property resulting from the self-organizing market dynamics. Even though an individual employee may care only about his or her salary and no one else's, the collective actions of all the employees, combined with the profit maximizing actions of all the companies, in a free market environment under budgetary constraints, lead towards a more fair allocation of wages, guided by Adam Smith's invisible hand of self-organization. By exploring deep connections with statistical thermodynamics, we show that entropy is the appropriate measure of fairness in a free market environment which is maximized at equilibrium to yield the lognormal distribution of salaries as the fairest inequality of pay in an organization under ideal conditions.
