摘要
对政治信任的研究主要有理性主义和文化主义两种理论取向。基于上海市的实证调查数据,通过因果模型检验了社会经济地位和民主观念在解释政治信任来源中的作用,研究发现民主观念对政治信任的直接作用和中介作用在不同的年龄群体中有较为明显的差别。具体来说,上海居民的政治信任主要取决于对民主观念的认同程度和对社会冲突的认知状况,民主观念在政治信任和社会经济地位两个因子之间发挥着重要的中介作用。青年群体的政治信任更多地受到社会冲突认知和民主观念的影响,而社会经济地位更能够改变中老年群体的政治信任。这反映出文化主义在青年群体中对政治信任的解释力更强。
Academic approaches to political trust display two major orientations: rationalism and cultural theories. Based on empirical survey data from Shanghai, canse-effect model is established to examine the role of soeio-eeonomic status and democratic concept in explaining the sources of political trust. The study finds that the direct effect and intermediary role of democratic concept show obvious differences among different age groups. Specifically, the political trust among residents in Shanghai is mainly determined by the degree of recognition of the democratic concept and the awareness of social conflicts. Democratic concept plays an important intermediary role between the two factors of political trust and socio-economic status. Political trust among the younger generations is more likely to be influenced by the recognition of social conflicts and democratic concept, while socio-economic status is more capable of changing the political trust among middle-aged and older groups. This indieates that cultural theories have more interpretive power for political trust among the youth.
