The changes in many countries and regions have changed unexpectedly, which has made many politicians sigh again.But objectively, this emotion comes from emphasis on political interests, not a description of facts.
Looking at various social forms, no matter what the system is, it is essentially the model of elite governance. It has tried to "elite" attempts either to fall into chaos or endless.The key to elite the governance of the world is to overwhelm people's hearts and control the public opinion, but it is not to obey public opinion.This is also an indisputable fact, otherwise, where will there be a rotary to the village that you will appear?In major historical nodes, it is always the cognition and actions of the elite -not the feelings and demands of the people -the direction of the development of things.
Especially in the election politics, the symbol of success in governance is not to be responded from time to time, but that political parties have achieved their goals at critical moments.Politics considers real interests, and the public is even more expected to have a good future, and it is hoped to rest on the past performance of politicians and the promise of the moment, but the result is to be forced to withstand the gap between expectations and reality.Therefore, it is not public opinion, but the internal paradox of political parties, forcing the people to continue to change their judgments and choices.
But those who have the hearts of the people get the world, and the politics that deviates from the public will last hard.Therefore, how to ensure the formation of consensus between elite cognition and people's feelings is the key to political competition and the rule of governing the world.
Although there are many methods, it seems that "information asymmetry" is the most commonly used.From the early knowledge monopoly and mysteriousism, to the current confidentiality system, it will be privatized by effective information, rely on exclusive information to maintain its advantages, and at the same time weaken the public's ability to question, thereby winning trust.This method blocks social development, and even often slides towards the foolish policies of misunderstanding the country and the people, but it is very effective in maintaining order, so it is durable.Snowden, who was officially citizen Russia recently, was not tolerated by the US government because it exposed the "new clothes of the emperor".The media is known as the fourth right outside the United States as the "three powers". In the era of mainstream media, this power was exerted to the extreme.But behind the gimmicks that expose the truth and supervise the public rights, the biggest function of the media is still about public opinion.Regardless of the taboos such as the correct political and correctness, or directly controlling public opinion, the mainstream media has never dared to slack slackness in the duty of the elite narrative.
Of course, various official media pursue the effect of a hundred response, and those media that advertise independent are equally concealed when choosing to filter the content.For example, Musk, who vowed to promote the "neutral government", uses the convenience of controlling Twitter to carry out a series of operations to maintain freedom of speech.public opinion.Since public opinion is like flowing water, the interests of political parties and elites determine the whereabouts of the water flow.Nevertheless, we must admit that the prosperity of Internet technology and self -media has brought about substantial changes, and changes are continuing.
The biggest advantages and disadvantages of the media are their spontaneousity, and the false information of different online platforms may exacerbate information asymmetry. This is a fact.But the diversified information dissemination method, the return of the ancient Greek "free urban square" on the Internet, repeatedly confirmed or falsified the truth of the truth, etc. In addition to bringing more and more effective information to the public, it also significantly improved significantly to improve significantly.Ordinary people's ability to judge right and wrong and participate in public affairs.
According to statistics, one -third of Twitter's content is political -related topics.Obviously, the innovation of information communication methods from the media has enabled the traditional methods of mainstream media and elite narrative to lead public opinion, and encounters unprecedented challenges.
The times are changing. At the moment, the personal partiality of the individual and the interests of political parties is no longer so easy to hide the sky; the determined expectations, pragmatic action, not the so -called value of the artificial structure, which is more deeply rooted in people's hearts than ever.EssenceThe logic of social governance is from the faith of "the people cannot bully", and gradually move towards the reality of "the people cannot bully". The way that political parties respond to public opinion must be changed. The pragmatic and rationality of public policies must be enhanced, and the interests of political parties themselves must be further compressed.
However, many politicians still believe in the creed of "public opinion like flowing water". As always, the story is made to mislead the public opinion.Crack society, create opposition, conspire for a while, and create a robbery.In this regard, all kinds of party factions that have stimulated their families should be deeply appreciated, but there may not be reflection.
This is not to say that elite governance has been outdated, because excessive diversification and spontaneousness will only cause a plate of loose sand, and the generalization of the pan -people will inevitably move towards populism; it is said that history has developed to a new stage, from the king of the earth, to the king, to the king, toDifferential rights and balances, and then to democratic elections, the continuous improvement of civil rights consciousness has always been the main line of social development.Is the interest distribution between the elite group and the ordinary people reasonable?
The world is the public, the people's greatest, and the people's hearts should be the fundamental interests of social development regardless of whether they change or unchanged.Public opinion has never been fleeting, and is always pursuing prosperity and security.
The epidemic is still there, the haze of the war has gone, and order reconstruction and the industry to reshape together, but all this is the turbulence of ordinary people.If you really plan for people's livelihood, in the political ecology, you need to manipulate less value and solve more practical problems. Otherwise, public opinion will make new choices.
