近年来影响中美关系的美国“宗教右翼”势力

The Recent Effects of "Religion Right" on the Relationship between China and the USA

美国宪法第一修正案为美国确立了严格的政教分离原则。从法律上说,政府与宗教利益集团各司其职,互不干涉。然而在美国,宗教虽然不直接参与社会政治,却被看成是国家政治机构中最主要的部分。20世纪80年代以后,"宗教右翼"成为共和党赢得选举胜利的一支重要力量。近些年,"宗教右翼"势力与共和党之间的渗透越来越紧密,对国家之间的关系尤其是中美关系产生了深远的影响。

It is written in the 1st Amendment of USA Constitution that politics should be separated from religion. However, religion is regarded as an important part in the American political organizations although it doesn＇ t take part in social politics directly. Since 1980s, the ＂Religion Right＂ has become an important power for the Republican Party to win the elections. Recently, there is a closer relationship between the ＂Religion Right＂ and the Republican Party. And it has a great effect on the relationship between China and the USA.
