利益集团被视为现代民主政治的重要结构,对美国的立法有着重大的影响。为了准确理解当代美国的政治,必须研究利益集团参与立法活动的种种情况。利益集团对立法有着正反两个方面的影响:一方面,利益集团的存在,为民主政治下的合理决策提供了必要的信息;另一方面,利益集团势力的扩张,削弱了国会整体上对政策结果的控制,损害了国会的权威,腐蚀和败坏了民主政治。因此,立法过程中在发挥利益集团正面作用的同时,亦应注意将其负面影响减少到最低限度。
Interest groups are regarded as an important structure of modern democratic politics and have a significant impact on the legislation of the United States. In order to accurately understand contemporary American politics, it is necessary to study various situations in which interest groups participate in legislative activities. On the one hand, the existence of interest groups provides the necessary information for making sound decisions under democratic politics; on the other hand, the expansion of the interests of the interest groups weakened the overall interest of the congress The control of policy results undermined the authority of the parliament and corrupted and ruined democratic politics. Therefore, while giving play to the positive role of interest groups in the legislative process, we should also pay attention to minimizing its negative impact.
