国际贸易与美国公众政策偏好的转向Trade and Evolution of the Policy Mood in the U.S.
范世炜,杨文辉
摘要(Abstract):
本文通过政策偏好的视角解读了美国民意长达40年的转变过程。通过分析1973年至2014年美国的微观和宏观数据,本文发现贸易影响着美国公众的政策偏好。具体来说,低技能蓝领工人和高技能劳工阶层相比,前者面临着更激烈的进口竞争,后者则更容易在贸易中受益,因此后者相比前者对政府福利支出的要求更少。另外,在对外政策上,高技能劳工阶层作为全球化的受益者更支持对外援助的政策,而低技能蓝领工人则更倾向于要求扩大国防开支以更多地维护本国利益。本文提供了经济全球化和美国民意之间的耦合证据,为理解美国国内政治带来一定的启示。
