政治文化视野下美国智库的发展和运行

The development and operation of think tank in the United States based on political culture

智库在美国的繁荣,离不开美国以参与型政治文化为主导的特定社会环境,二者通过价值取向的趋同实现协同发展。美国政治文化为智库的发展提供文化土壤和精神动力,智库从政策研究型机构到政策推销型机构的转变历程,本质上是以组织机构和实践模式对参与型政治文化做出的响应。研究政治文化与智库间的相互建构和协同发展,可以为我国建设中国特色新型智库提供有益经验。

The prosperity of think tank in the United States is related with the specific social environment,which is leading by participating political culture. The think tank and political culture realize coordinated development by value orientation convergence. American political culture provides cultural soil and spiritual power for the development of think tank,whose transforming process from policy-research to policy-promotion type is the response in organization and practice pattern to participating political culture. The mutual construction and coordinated development between political culture and think tank can provide experience to establish new type think tank with Chinese characteristics.
