美国两党制的产生

Formation of the Two-Party System in the United States

美利坚合众国成立后,面临着财政和外交的双重困难,在如何解决这些问题上,财政部长汉密尔顿和国务卿杰弗逊发生了很大的分歧,最终导致了党派的分裂及两党的形成。

After the founding of the Unites States, the new nation confronted such difficulties as financial and foreign problems. In the course of solving them, sharp conflicts arose between Hamilton, secretary to the treasury, and Jefferson, secretary of state, which eventually resulted in factions and political parties.
