摘要
平民主义是世界现代化进程中一种很普遍、很值得研究的现象。美国也有平民主义传统。从19世纪后期至今,美国至少出现过四次较大的平民主义浪潮。但是,平民主义在美国历史上的反复兴起并没有像在很多国家那样带来极大的社会混乱,扭曲甚至中断现代化的进程,而是推动了现存体制的制度创新与平民主义自身的内化。这种建设性结果的产生依赖于一个有助于化解精英与平民之间社会矛盾冲突的良好"平台",即以中产阶级为主体的社会结构和多元分化的社会格局。
Populism is a widespread phenomenon deserving careful research in the process of world modermzatlon. Populism deeply rooted in American history. Since the late 19th century, there were at least four waves of populism appeared in America. However, the periodical ups and downs of populism in America brought about not huge chaos which would have interrupted or distorted America＇s modernization just as what happened in many others countries, but rather institutional innovation and intemalization of populism itself. This positive result came from the good platform composed of a social structure dominated by a large middle class and a pluralistic social pattern. On such a platform, it＇s easier to resolve contradictions between the elite and the people.
