Narrative and National Identity:Obama's Anatomy of State Cri
發(fā)布時間:2025-05-15 00:21
本文試圖解釋在奧巴馬政府面臨的危機中,國家敘事的重要性和發(fā)揮的作用。本文首先要探討的一個基礎(chǔ)問題就是,敘事對于國家身份具有何種含義,以及當屆政府可以通過何種方式來運用敘事,尤其是在危機爆發(fā)之時。通過仔細考察2008年的金融危機和曠日持久的反恐戰(zhàn)爭,本文著眼于奧巴馬政府在政策和論調(diào)上采取的反應。論文將考慮奧巴馬政府治下,新的危機敘事由何構(gòu)成,以及新敘事角度的選定又可由哪些關(guān)鍵因素引導。帶著這些問題,本文旨在探討面對危機時新國家身份敘事的緣起和設定,并進一步了解奧巴馬的政治修辭之術(shù)。本文的研究結(jié)果支持了學術(shù)界關(guān)于民族敘事的一般結(jié)論,即國家敘事一直以來并且將繼續(xù)被政治精英們?yōu)榱瞬煌哪康?以不同的方式使用和操縱。不變的是,它與國家構(gòu)建有著內(nèi)在的固有聯(lián)系。尤其是在在危機時期,團結(jié)民族共同體的話語變得格外響亮。通過引用某些公民價值(進步主義)和基于身份的特質(zhì)(例外主義),奧巴馬政府創(chuàng)建了自己的危機敘事,以捍衛(wèi)他的務實的進步政策做法。這些用來指導美國在危機時期應如何行事的敘事取材自建國以來總統(tǒng)所延續(xù)使用的美國公民傳統(tǒng)。因此,這些敘事/故事并非旨在定義而是在捍衛(wèi)何為美國。敘述者為了迎合自己所偏愛的政策...
