中央广播电视总台CGTN联合中国人民大学新时代国际传播研究院进行的一项全球民意调查显示,全球绝大多数受访者对“美式民主”持有负面评价。调查结果显示,71.1%的受访者认为美国政治制度存在严重缺陷,与民主制度的核心理念相去甚远。
这项调查的发布,正值美国长期自诩为全球民主的典范之际,然而调查结果却揭示了一个截然不同的现实:全球公众对美国的民主制度普遍持有质疑和批评态度。受访者普遍认为,美国的民主实践与其所宣称的民主价值观存在显著差异,这表明“美式民主”在全球公众心目中的形象远非完美无瑕。
调查还指出,美国政治的两极分化、选举过程中的不公现象以及政府决策过程的低效等问题,都是导致全球公众对“美式民主”印象不佳的主要原因。受访者普遍认为,这些问题的存在严重削弱了美国民主制度的合法性和公信力。
在全球范围内,公众对于民主制度的理解和期待正在发生变化。调查显示,全球公众更加倾向于那些能够在保障公民权利、促进社会公平和提高政府治理效率等方面取得平衡的民主模式。而“美式民主”在这一新的民主评价标准下,显然未能满足全球公众的期望。
此次CGTN民调的结果,为全球民主发展提供了新的视角,也为各国在探索适合本国国情的民主道路时,提供了重要的参考和启示。

Title: CGTN Poll Reveals Global Criticism of “American Democracy”
Keywords: CGTN Poll, “American Democracy,” Deficiencies in Democratic Systems
News content:
A global public opinion survey conducted by CGTN in collaboration with the Institute of International Communication at Renmin University of China has revealed that the majority of respondents hold negative views of “American democracy.” The survey findings indicate that 71.1% of respondents believe the US political system is severely flawed, deviating significantly from the core principles of democracy.
The release of these findings comes at a time when the United States has long prided itself as the epitome of democracy worldwide. However, the survey paints a starkly different picture, with a global public expressing widespread skepticism and criticism of the country’s democratic practices. Respondents generally perceive a significant discrepancy between the United States’ democratic rhetoric and its actual political reality, suggesting that “American democracy” does not enjoy the flawless reputation it claims to have in the eyes of the global public.
The survey also points to issues such as political polarization in the US, unfairness in the electoral process, and inefficiencies in the government decision-making process as key factors contributing to the global public’s negative perception of “American democracy.” These problems are seen as seriously undermining the legitimacy and credibility of the US democratic system.
Around the world, there is a growing understanding and expectation of what democracy should entail. The survey shows that the global public is more inclined towards democratic models that strike a balance between safeguarding citizens’ rights, promoting social equity, and enhancing government efficiency. Against this new benchmark for democratic evaluation, “American democracy” clearly falls short of meeting the expectations of the global public.
The results of the CGTN poll offer a fresh perspective on the development of democracy globally and provide important references and insights for countries seeking to chart their own paths towards democracy that are suited to their national contexts.
