Abstract

Homonationalism is a proposed value configuration that promotes both accepting gay people and prejudice towards immigrants and ethnic minorities. This value configuration contrasts with the widely supported theory that all prejudices are positively related, and are explained by underlying causes such as authoritarianism. Although homonationalism has received attention in qualitative research on mass-media and political discourse, this is the first quantitative exploration of the concept. We used data from a society likely to be high on homonationalism (UK), and one likely to be low (Romania). None of our results were consistent with homonationalism, either in an experiment conducted with students (Study 1, N = 110), or in a secondary analysis of data from the same two countries (Study 2, N = 2638). Ethnic prejudice and homophobia were positively related, while homonationalism was negatively related to homophobia and authoritarianism. Homonationalism has little utility as a construct for understanding public opinion at this point in time, and research investigating it at other levels of analysis may be more fruitful.
同性恋民族主义是否影响了公众舆论?来自英国和罗马尼亚的实验和调查证据
同性恋民族主义是一种提倡接受同性恋者和对移民和少数民族的偏见的价值观。这种价值配置与广泛支持的理论形成对比,该理论认为所有偏见都是积极相关的,并且可以通过威权主义等潜在原因来解释。虽然同族主义在大众媒体和政治话语的定性研究中受到关注,但这是对这一概念的首次定量探索。我们使用的数据来自一个可能具有较高民族主义倾向的社会(英国)和一个可能具有较低民族主义倾向的社会(罗马尼亚)。无论是对学生进行的实验(研究1,N = 110),还是对同样两个国家的数据进行的二次分析(研究2,N = 2638),我们的结果都与同族主义不一致。种族偏见与同性恋恐惧症呈正相关,而同性恋民族主义与同性恋恐惧症和威权主义呈负相关。在这个时间点上,作为一种理解公众舆论的结构,同源民族主义几乎没有什么用处,在其他分析层面上对它进行调查的研究可能会更有成效。
