【摘要】："民主聯(lián)盟可靠論"是國際關系學"民主理論家族"中的新成員。它認為,民主制度可以緩解國際無政府狀態(tài)中履行聯(lián)盟承諾的難題,民主國家做出的聯(lián)盟承諾更加可靠。其具體表現(xiàn)是:與含有專制國家的聯(lián)盟相比,民主國家之間的聯(lián)盟更加持久。因為民主國家的領導人受到的制度約束較高、政策制定的靈活性較低、國內施加的違約成本較高,并且具有遵守契約的文化規(guī)范。但是,正如其批評者所指出的,民主聯(lián)盟可靠論采用了一種不準確的方法來衡量聯(lián)盟承諾的可靠性,即以聯(lián)盟持續(xù)時間代替聯(lián)盟成員履行聯(lián)盟承諾的實際行為;過于強調民主制度的優(yōu)點,而忽視了民主制度的缺點,如委托—代理難題、適應國際環(huán)境變化的能力相對較弱和使用武力的難題。這些缺點使民主國家比專制國家更不可能履行聯(lián)盟承諾。
[Abstract]:The theory of reliability of the Democratic Union is a new member of the democratic theory family of international relations. It argues that democracy can ease the challenge of international anarchy in fulfilling coalition commitments, which democracies make more reliable. The concrete manifestation is that the alliance between democratic countries is more lasting than the alliance with autocratic states. Because democratic leaders are subject to higher institutional constraints, less flexibility in policymaking, higher costs of domestically imposed defaults, and a culture of compliance. However, as its critics have pointed out, the credibility doctrine of the Democratic Alliance uses an inaccurate method to measure the reliability of its commitments, that is, to replace the actual behaviour of its members in the fulfilment of their commitments by the duration of the alliance; Too much emphasis is placed on the advantages of democracy, while the disadvantages of democracy are ignored, such as the principal-agent problem, the relatively weak ability to adapt to the changes in the international environment and the difficulty of the use of force. These shortcomings make it harder for democracies to live up to their union commitments than authoritarian ones.
