美国公众舆论与战争——以朝鲜战争、越南战争和伊拉克战争为例

American Public Opinion and Wars

本文以朝鲜战争、越南战争和伊拉克战争为例说明美国是最喜欢用武力处理国际关系的国家。战争的伤亡会影响美国的民意,反战的民意进而会影响政策的实施,甚至影响总统竞选连任,但不会制止战争。

The United States is the country that is used to deal with international relations by military means. The war casualties may change the public opinion toward the war. As a result, the public attitude has impact on the war policy and even reelection of the president, but is not able to stop the war.
