近年来，人们对混合制度的兴趣越来越大，相关文献也越来越多。是否对这种体制安排有一个好的定义？是否真的有一套稳定的政治机构可以这样贴上标签？有没有可能在民主传播的广泛过程中，这些只是“过渡性”制度，而最合适的区分仍然是林茨提出的、传统上被接受的民主与威权主义之间的旧区分？本文解决和回答这些问题，通过精确定位相关的分析维度，从“政权”，“威权主义”和“民主”的定义开始;通过定义什么是“混合政权”;通过试图回答标题中提出的关键问题;通过从过渡阶段的情况下解开适当的混合政权的情况;并提出混合政权的类型学。一些主要调查结果和结论提到缺乏能够履行其职能的机构以及实现可能的民主变革的关键要素。
In recent years there has been growing interest and a related literature on hybrid regimes. Is there a good definition of such an institutional arrangement? Are there actually sets of stabilized, political institutions that can be labelled in this way? Is it possible that within the widespread process of democracy diffusion these are only ‘transitional’ regimes and the most suitable distinction is still the old one, suggested by Linz and traditionally accepted, between democracy and authoritarianism? This article addresses and responds to these questions by pinpointing the pertinent analytic dimensions, starting with definitions of ‘regime’, ‘authoritarianism’, and ‘democracy’; by defining what a ‘hybrid regime’ is; by trying to answer the key question posed in the title; by disentangling the cases of proper hybrid regimes from the cases of transitional phases; and by proposing a typology of hybrid regimes. Some of the main findings and conclusions refer to the lack of institutions capable of performing their functions as well as the key elements for achieving possible changes towards democracy.
