Abstract

While China has been experiencing rapid economic growth, its conflicts with the United States have become more public. In particular, the argument that the Chinese government can easily gain public support in establishing and promoting national policies under its authoritarian regime has been on the rise. With this background, this study conducts an empirical analysis of data from 4,366 survey respondents using ordinary least squares and ordered logit models to analyze the effect of the Chinese government’s political propaganda and individual characteristics on anti-US sentiment. The results suggest that this propaganda strengthens anti-US sentiment. As for individual characteristics, party officials have stronger anti-US sentiment. Moreover, interacting exposure to political propaganda with the main variables suggests that members of the Communist Party of China, national minorities, and rural residents have stronger anti-US sentiment, presumably because they are more influenced by political propaganda.

中国政府的政治宣传和个人特征对反美情绪的影响

在中国经济快速增长的同时，它与美国的冲突也变得更加公开。特别是，在威权主义体制下，中国政府在制定和推进国家政策时，可以轻易获得国民支持的主张越来越多。在此背景下，本研究利用普通最小二乘法和有序logit模型对4366名调查对象的数据进行实证分析，分析中国政府的政治宣传和个人特征对反美情绪的影响。结果表明，这种宣传强化了反美情绪。从个人特征看，党内干部反美情绪较强。此外，政治宣传暴露与主要变量的交互作用表明，中共党员、少数民族和农村居民的反美情绪更强，这可能是因为他们更容易受到政治宣传的影响。

期刊介绍： The only academic journal of its kind produced in the United States, Asian Survey provides a comprehensive retrospective of contemporary international relations within South, Southeast, and East Asian nations. As the Asian community’s matrix of activities becomes increasingly complex, it is essential to have a sourcebook for sound analysis of current events, governmental policies, socio-economic development, and financial institutions. In Asian Survey you’ll find that sourcebook. Asian Survey consistently publishes articles by leading American and foreign scholars, whose views supplement and contest meanings disseminated by the media.
