摘要
关于中国国家治理能力的研究很多都建立在批判西方国家能力理论的基础上。西方学界对国家能力本质的主流认知经历了国家自主性到基础性权力的转换。在这一过程中,人们把抽象的国家分解为具有一致性的行动者或制度组织,突出其中一种属性对国家能力产生和运行的作用是常见的国家概念操作化方式。然而,这种简化操作不应该遮蔽国家能力研究中关于国家性质、要素的具体论述。合理地扬弃西方国家能力理论需要重视以下问题:历史化、情境化地阐释国家概念中的制度—行动者二重性;重视国家权力向国家能力转换中关于国家价值取向的预设;关注公共利益与国家机构利益的一致性;正确看待“人”对制度的纠偏。
Many studies on China’s governance capacity are based on learning and criticizing Western state capacity theories. The perception about the nature of state capacity has experienced a shift from state autonomy to infrastructure power. In this process,it is a common way to decompose the abstract state into a consistent actor or institution configuration,and then to highlight the role of one of the attributes in the generation and operation of state capacity under specific circumstances. However,this simplified approach should not obscure the rich discourses and narratives on the very nature and elements of state in Wester state capacity theories. Listed below is the key that helps absorb and criticize the state capacity theories:historicize and contextualize the interpretation of the actor-institution dualism that exists in the concept of the state;pay attention to assumption on state’s values orientation,which is easily neglected in the transition from state power to state capacity;emphasize the consistency between state interests and the interests of state institutions;and understand political elites’ correction of the institutional system.
