摘 要: 米尔斯的中产阶级“政治后卫”说是指中产阶级具有机会主义的投机倾向,不可能是政治运动的组织者和领导者,只能是参与者和追随者。一些学者误读该学说,认为“政治后卫”的重要表征是“政治冷漠”和政治“平衡轮”。实际上,在《白领-美国的中产阶级》一书中,米尔斯用“政治冷漠”一词来描述二战后美国民众的普遍社会心理,而非单指中产阶级,而政治“平衡轮”亦系转引其他学者的话,并非他本人的观点。今天,正确解读米尔斯的中产阶级“政治后卫”说,对于廓清认识、引导中产阶级有序发展具有重要理论和现实意义。 |

Abstract: The theory of political guard about middle class established by Mills pointed out that the middle class had speculative tendencies of opportunism, so it could not be the organizer and leader in political movement, in spite of the role of the participants and followers. Some scholars have misunderstood the theory, taking “political guard” as “political apathy” and political “balance wheel”. In fact, in the book of white-collar workers-United States’ middle classes, Mills applied the term of “political apathy” to describe the universal social psychology among American people after World War II, rather than referring to the middle class, and the view of political “balance wheel” he quoted was of other scholars, not his own. Today, it has great theoretical and practical significance for us to grasp the theory of political guard about middle class, in terms of clear understanding and healthy development of the middle class. |
