摘要

专制捐助者的存在是否会改变公民对民主的看法?本文认为,专制捐助者的存在会改变公民对捐助者的影响力和对民主的支持的看法。研究分析了来自 AidData 的中国发展援助(全球最大的专制援助国之一)和塞尔维亚--一个西方和非传统援助国都大量参与援助项目的中等收入国家--的援助国一方和受援国一方。研究结果表明,在专制捐助方援助水平较高的情况下,对捐助方政治影响力持非常积极看法的公民最不可能支持民主。文章提出了两个主要机制:援助的归因过程和精英将外援工具化。分析采用了一种混合方法,将援助和市级调查数据的混合有序概率回归与对塞尔维亚问题专家的 16 次访谈相结合,这些专家在援助计划或研究方面有直接经验。这项研究有助于加深我们对专制捐助者对公民支持民主的影响的理解。

Are autocratic donors impeding democracy abroad? The presence of autocratic donors and citizens' perceptions of democracy

Does the presence of autocratic donors alter citizens' perceptions of democracy? The paper argues that the presence of autocratic donors can alter citizens' views of donors' influence and support for democracy. The study analyses, on the donor side Chinese development assistance from AidData, one of the largest autocratic donors worldwide and, on the recipient side, Serbia—a middle-income country where both Western and non-traditional donors are heavily involved with aid projects. The findings suggest that in the presence of higher levels of aid from autocratic donors, citizens who uphold a very positive view of donors' political influence are the least likely to support democracy. The article proposes two main mechanisms: the attribution processes of aid and the instrumentalization of foreign aid by elites. The analysis employs a mixed-method approach, combining mixed-ordered probit regression of aid and municipal-level survey data with insights from 16 interviews with experts on Serbia who have direct experience with aid initiatives or research. The study contributes to advancing our understanding of the impact of autocratic donors on citizens' support for democracy.

期刊介绍: The Journal aims to publish the best research on international development issues in a form that is accessible to practitioners and policy-makers as well as to an academic audience. The main focus is on the social sciences - economics, politics, international relations, sociology and anthropology, as well as development studies - but we also welcome articles that blend the natural and social sciences in addressing the challenges for development. The Journal does not represent any particular school, analytical technique or methodological approach, but aims to publish high quality contributions to ideas, frameworks, policy and practice, including in transitional countries and underdeveloped areas of the Global North as well as the Global South.
