摘要
过去二十多年里,中国在维持稳定的政治环境下实现了快速的城市化,这个现象颠覆了政治学的一个经典结论。作为一个例外,我们如何理解这种城市化与政治稳定彼此共生的问题?本文运用国家基础权力的理论,从国家的治理能力、国家对社会的控制范围以及国家统治的微观基础三个维度,来解释这个现象。基本的发现包括:(1)中国的城市化是提高国家的财政能力的重要手段,而财政能力的提高反过来有助于国家在城市基层社区里有效地推行政策,有助于运用再分配的手段缩小贫富差距;(2)国家基础权力的作用还来自于权力在城市空间的制度性拓展,将新的社会群体与国家之间建立起政治联系;(3)国家基础权力的建设着重于在城市底层人口中建立政治支持,福利上向底层人口倾斜,或者通过向弱势群体提供利益冲突的国家救济。国家基础权力在上述三个方面产生的共同作用,带来了城市在秩序治理方面的有效性。
During the past two decades, the reality that the quick urbanization in China has not resulted in political instability powerfully reverses the traditional proposition in political science. As an exceptional case, how should we account for such a symbiosis? By means of the theory contained in the concept of "state infrastructural power", this paper makes efforts to explain it in three dimensions. First, urbanization in China is an important measure to increase its financial capacity, and such an increase aversely has a great contribute to more effectively implementing its policies in urban communities and bridging the income gap by redistribution. Secondly, the role which the infrastructural power plays comes from the fact that the state extends its institutions in grassroots communities, which establishes political ties between politics and society. Third, the contribute of infrastructural power to urban stability roots in its attempting to build political supports among grassroots, transferring more welfare to masses or providing effective solutions to social conflicts. When these three dimensions combine to function, the efficiency for the state to rule urban communities certainly gets outstanding.
