摘要

本章论述了公民接受暗示的作用。接受暗示是回答这个问题的一种方式:当大多数公众理性无知时,民主还能起作用吗?参考文献对这个问题给出了一个响亮的“是”答案。本章详细阐述了这个答案的原因和它成立的条件。然而,我们有理由对这个答案持谨慎态度,不要过于乐观。虽然暗示行为既存在又有帮助,但它并不是绝对正确的。本章还指出,在某些时候,就民主决策而言,暗示行为并不能真正让人说它是万灵药。

Information Cues and Rational Ignorance
This chapter addresses the role of cue taking by citizens. Cue taking is a way to answer the question: can democracy work when most of the public is rationally ignorant? The cue-taking literature gives a resounding “yes” as an answer to this question. This chapter elaborates upon the reasons for this answer and the conditions under which it holds. There are, however, reasons to be cautious in being too optimistic about this answer. While cue-taking behavior is both present and helpful, it is not infallible. The chapter also notes the times when cue-taking behavior does not really allow one to say that it is a panacea so far as democratic decision making is concerned.
