新加坡的成功之道——评《小邦大治:新加坡的国家基本制度建设》

Singapore’s Successful Governance——A Book Review on Good Governance in a City State:State-buliding in Singapore

遵循政道与治道逻辑,《小邦大治》的核心在于,新加坡的成功是由于建构起八个方面的基本制度:强制机制、汲取机制、濡化机制、认证机制、统领机制、规管机制、再分配机制以及吸纳整合机制。同时,新加坡的政道是混合体制与'强国家民主制'。通过新加坡的案例,作者提供了一种国家治理的范式或框架,但在笔者看来,这种范式或框架虽然对中国等发展中国家具有启发意义,但不能完全解决新加坡的问题,也不能完全解决中国等发展中国家的问题。

The core of the Good Governance in a City State:Statebuliding in Singapore is that Singapore’s success is due to the construction of eight basic systems,including the mandatory mechanism,the extraction mechanism,the identity mechanism,the certification mechanism,the steering mechanism,the regulatory mechanism,the redistribution mechanism and the absorption mechanism.At the same time,Singapore has a mixed system and strong national democracy.Through the case of Singapore,the author provides a paradigm or framework for state governance,which is enlightening to China and other developing countries,but there are also problems.
