西方全方位政党理论:争论与评价

The Western Catch-all Party's Theory:Debate and Evaluation

自从奥托·基希海默尔提出全方位政党概念以来,西方政治学家对全方位政党理论进行了持久而广泛的争论,并对该理论进行了适应性检验,从而形成了内容丰富的全方位政党理论,但是也有一些学者从不同方面批评全方位政党理论。更多的作者认为全方位政党理论反映了西方一些主流政党的现实,有一定的解释力,但是目前西方政党与政党体制出现的一些新变化影响了它的解释力。全方位政党理论不可能适应所有政党,尤其是对发展中国家的大多数政党不具有适应性。

Since Otto Kirchheimer proposed the concept of catch-all parties, western politicat scientists have had a long and widespread debate over the catch-all thesis, and tested its adaptability, thus formed a fully inclusive theory of catch-all parties. However, some scholars criticized the catch-all party＇s theory from different aspects. More authors believe that the catch-all thesis reflects the reality of some western mainstream political parties and has a certain explanatory power, But some new changes in western political parties and party systems have affected its ex- planatory power. The theory of catch-all parties can not adapt to all political parties, especially for most political parties in developing countries.
