政治—行政二分法的张力与启示

Tensile Force and Apocalypse of the Politics-administration Dichotomy

作为公共行政学的思想理论基石,政治-行政二分法具有很强的范式张力、思想张力和实践张力。政治-行政二分法通过理想化的理论构想,对公共行政学范式发展和变迁起到独特的导示作用,通过提出价值理性和工具理性二元互动的理论构想、协调重于分开的分协体系、功能主导机构的组织的思想,框定了公共行政发展变化和"钟摆"的范围。政治-行政二分法对公共行政学理论学习、学科发展和行政改革实践具有重要的启示作用,应进一步强化历史实践意识、语境生态意识和追根溯源意识,走大学科之路、加强公共行政哲学的建设、形成公共行政学一些大的焦点问题,应遵循政治-行政二分法的基本精神和要旨,既保持政治对行政的适度控制,又使二者适当分开。

The politics-administration dichotomy,as an ideological and theoretical foundation stone of administration,is of powerful tensile force of canonical form,ideology and practice.It plays an irreplaceable role and draws a frame of the development of public administration by ideal theoretical system of mutual acting dual factors between value rationality and instrumental rationality,system of dividing and coordinating which is more important than the former as well as organizational conception of function prior to institution.The politics-administration dichotomy is of a vital apocalypse for the study,reform and development of administration.It is a must to strengthen consciousness of historical practice,language context and going back to the basics,develop comprehensive discipline,and pay more attention to the philosophy of public administration and focus on some common subjects.Moreover,it is vital to keep control of administration by politics properly as well as to preserve the relative independence of administration according to the essence of the politics-administration dichotomy.
