非对称协商指的是协商政治中的参与方在影响公共意见的资源占有上是不平等的,这种协商政治与理想的协商民主有一定距离,但符合某种共和精神。本文认为这是一种特殊的共和实践,除了具备公益主导、理性讨论、寻求共识等共和要素,构成中国式共和传统的核心内容。 Asymmetric negotiation refers to the fact that participants in consultative politics are unequal in the possession of resources that affect public opinion, and that consultative politics is far from consummate deliberative democracy but in a spirit of republicanism. This paper argues that this is a special kind of republican practice, which possesses the republican elements of dominating the public, rational discussions and seeking consensus, which form the core of the Chinese-style republican tradition.
