关于理性的个人为什么会参与政治的理论解释仍然不能令人满意。本文通过开发和分析模型来解决这个问题,这些模型在公民的回报中包括“关系商品”,这是依赖于人与人之间互动的目标。这些模型比标准方法预测更多的参与者。例如,在某些情况下,如果人们相信别人会采取行动,他们就更有可能采取行动,这与搭便车的逻辑相反。更重要的是,确定了领导人可以增加群众活动的条件。因此,从理性个体的偏好和决策的角度出发,提供了一个“动员”模型。
Theoretical explanations of why rational individuals would participate in politics remain unsatisfactory. This paper addresses the problem by developing and analyzing models which include among citizens' payoffs “relational goods,” objectives which depend upon interactions among persons. The models predict more participation than do the standard approaches. For example, under some circumstances persons will be more likely to act if they believe others will act, contrary to free-rider logic. More importantly, conditions are identified under which leaders could increase mass activity. Thus, a model is provided of “mobilization” in terms of the preferences and decisions of a rational individual.
