The Mirage of Neo‐Corporatism
批判新社团主义,认为它让政治决策者吸纳大型组织利益,违背民主合法性原则,且缺乏理论支撑,无法解决福利国家的治理与经济问题。
The assessment of neo-corporatism as a societal concept involves a cooptation of large organized interests by political decision makers as negotiators that are made coresponsible, or even completely responsible, for the implementation of the results of the institutionalized political bargaining. It is argued that such a "private-interest government" would violate basic principles of democratic legitimacy and control. Furthermore, no solid theoretical underpinnings are recognizeable that would justify the hope that such a concept would allow the overcoming of the problems of governability and economic performance of the welfare state. Finally, the concept appears to suffer even more from a pretense of knowledge than the present pluralist economic interventionism. Copyright 1988 by WWZ and Helbing & Lichtenhahn Verlag AG
