摘要

在这场关于民主概念多元主义的讨论中，弗雷德里克·谢弗（Frederic Schaffer）举着一盏指路明灯，展示了研究人员在研究语言、文化、时间和空间中的“民主”及其“粗略等价物”时应考虑的因素。该法案将重点放在研究和知识传播方面的实用策略上。例如，最好成立一个由民主认识专家组成的国际委员会来收集、编码和组织民主的含义及其在世界上的大致等价物吗？而且，有了这样一个委员会或完全不同的东西，当这么多人似乎只对自由主义的民主概念感兴趣时，我们如何将这些信息与民主机构和活动家联系起来？讨论结束时，考虑到在民主理论、比较政治和民主化领域进行广泛的研究和行动主义。

Democracies Across Cultures

In this discussion of democracy's conceptual pluralism(s), Frederic Schaffer holds a guiding lamp to show what researchers should take into consideration in the study of “the democracies” and their “rough equivalents” as can be found across language, culture, time, and space. This act generates a focus on practical tactics in research and knowledge dissemination. Is it, for example, best to establish an international committee of democracy's epistemic experts to gather, code, and organize the meanings of democracy and their rough equivalents as can be found in the world? And, with such a committee or something altogether different, how can we relate this information to pro-democracy institutions and activists when so many appear to be interested only in liberal conceptions of democracy? The discussion ends with considerations of an open range of research and activism in the fields of democratic theory, comparative politics, and democratization.

期刊介绍： Democratic Theory is a peer-reviewed journal published and distributed by Berghahn. It encourages philosophical and interdisciplinary contributions that critically explore democratic theory—in all its forms. Spanning a range of views, the journal offers a cross-disciplinary forum for diverse theoretical questions to be put forward and systematically examined. It advances non-Western as well as Western ideas and is actively based on the premise that there are many forms of democracies and many types of democrats. As a forum for debate, the journal challenges theorists to ask and answer the perennial questions that plague the field of democratization studies: Why is democracy so prominent in the world today? What is the meaning of democracy? Will democracy continue to expand? Are current forms of democracy sufficient to give voice to “the people” in an increasingly fragmented and divided world? Who leads in democracy? What types of non-Western democratic theories are there? Should democrats always defend democracy? Should democrats be fearful of de-democratization, post-democracies, and the rise of hybridized regimes?
