“神权民主”与“新国家主义”——当代国际政治中的“民粹宗教”

Theocratic Democracy and New Statism:“Populist Religion” in Contemporary International Politics

近年来,国际宗教关系的急剧变化促使国际政治随之发生相应变化。全球性民粹政治思潮的形成,无不基于各国宗教的不同信仰方式而得以建构与强化,其中,民粹宗教对国际政治关系的影响在当今国际政治中最为明显。以伊斯兰教信仰为核心的阿拉伯民粹主义、儒佛信仰为主体的华夏民粹主义、基督教原教旨教派与底层白人的基督教民粹主义等,在一定程度上形成了"民粹宗教",促成"神权民主"及其"民众神圣",导致具有新国家主义特征的"绝对国家"及忠诚于国家等特征出现,从而深刻影响到国际政治关系,乃至能够强化、左右当下国际政治思潮。

In recent years,the drastic changes in international religious relations has spilled over into international politics.The global populism has been built and strengthened by different religious styles of different countries.In particular,the impact of populist religion on international politics is the most prominent.The Islamcentered Arabic populism,the Chinese populism based on Buddhism and Confucianism,and Christian populism of Christian fundamentalists and lower-class white people have altogether produced the phenomenon of'populist religion.'It has generated the idea of'theocratic democracy'and'sacred populace,'and has led to the new statism that emphasizes'absolute state'and loyalty to state.These developments have profoundly affected international politics and even contemporary international political thought.
