美国的寡头集团与政治腐败

发布时间：2018-08-07 07:36

【摘要】：根据古希腊哲学家亚里士多德对寡头下的定义,在美国显然存在着寡头集团;美国许多亿万富翁的存在,就是有力证据。然而,他们为了聚集更多的财富,就会从事各种违法的政治或经济活动;他们利用手中的金钱,直接或间接腐蚀政府官员,就是公认的事实。尽管寡头的活动有时相当隐蔽,但其危害还是无法隐蔽的。谁都不能否认,在美国日益增多的有关政府官员贪腐案件中,其中有一部分是与寡头的腐蚀活动分不开的。然而,寡头的活动不但使民众,包括仁人志士不满,而且使他们决心为政府出谋划策,希望政府抑制寡头的活动及其危害。在这种形式下,联邦政府当然也不能无动于衷;它设法扩大普通民众的教育机会,制定《两党竞选改革法案》以及惩办贪腐官员等。不过,从学术角度观察,美国的"寡头问题",并未完全解决,有些问题如物质财富在某种基础上是否必然转变成政治权力等,尚有待于进一步研究。
[Abstract]:According to the definition of the oligarchy by the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle, there is an obvious oligarchy in the United States; the existence of many billionaires in the United States is strong evidence. However, in order to gather more wealth, they will engage in various illegal political or economic activities; they use the money in their hands to directly or indirectly corrode the government officials. It is a recognized fact that although the activity of oligarchies is sometimes quite concealed, its harm can not be concealed. No one can deny that part of the increasing number of corruption related to government officials in the United States is inseparable from the corrosion of oligarchs. And they are determined to make a plan for the government, hoping that the government will suppress the oligarchy and its harm. In this form, the federal government is certainly not indifferent; it tries to expand the educational opportunities of the ordinary people, make the two party election reform act and punish the corrupt officials. Some questions, such as whether material wealth will inevitably turn into political power on some basis, need further study.
