政务信息、流通方向及其不对称性--研究中国当代史的一种路径

Government Information,Circulation Direction and Their Asymmetry——A Way to Research Contemporary Chinese History

执政当局因执行政务而产生的资讯叫政务信息。政务信息的流通是古今中外都存在的现象。由于各种条件的限制,古代留下的政务信息资料不多。随着行政制度和文书档案制度的完善,当代政务信息资料空前丰富。充分利用政务信息资料,从政务信息流通的角度,特别是从信息不对称的角度,探讨有关问题,将使我们对当代历史的理解,达到更深入的程度。这种研究路径值得大力提倡。

The information generated by the authorities during the execution of government affairs is called government information.The circulation of government information is a common phenomenon at all times all over the world.There are few government information materials left in ancient times due to various condition limits.Nowadays,the government information data is unprecedentedly rich.Making full use of this data to discuss relevant issues from the perspective of circulation,especially from the information asymmetry,will let us further understand the contemporary history.This research path should be advocated strongly.
