The Federal Role After 1980 · 1980年后的联邦角色
A milestone and two policies
- Ronald Reagan's victory in the presidential election of 1980 represented an important milestone, allowing conservatives to enact significant tax cuts and continue the deregulation of many industries.
- Continue the deregulation — the CED says deregulation was already under way, so 1980 accelerated rather than started it.
- A milestone marks a point in a longer process, which matches 9.1's newly ascendant rather than newly born.
一个里程碑与两项政策
- 罗纳德·里根在 1980 年总统选举中的胜利是一个重要的里程碑,它使保守派得以实施大幅减税并继续对许多行业的放松管制。
- 继续……放松管制——CED 说放松管制早已在进行,因此 1980 年是加速了它,而不是开启了它。
- 一个里程碑标记的是一段更长过程中的一个点,这与 9.1 的新近崛起而非新生相吻合。
Select both · 两者 policies the 1980 victory allowed. · 选择1980年胜利所允许的两项政策。
'Continue' means deregulation was already under way. · “持续”意味着放松管制早已开始。
The argument, and its obstacle
- Conservatives argued that liberal programmes were counterproductive in fighting poverty and stimulating economic growth.
- Some of their efforts to reduce the size and scope of government met with inertia and liberal opposition, as many programmes remained popular with voters.
- Remained popular with voters is the decisive detail: the obstacle was democratic, not merely institutional.
那项论证,以及它的障碍
- 保守派主张自由派项目在对抗贫困与刺激经济增长方面适得其反。
- 他们缩小政府规模与范围的一些努力遇到了惯性与自由派的反对,因为许多项目在选民中仍然受欢迎。
- 在选民中仍然受欢迎是那个决定性的细节:这个障碍是民主性的,而不只是制度性的。
The obstacle to shrinking government was that programmes... · 缩小政府规模的障碍在于,这些项目……
A democratic obstacle, not merely an institutional one. · 一个民主障碍,而不仅仅是一个制度障碍。
Debates that continued
- Policy debates continued over free-trade agreements, the scope of the government social safety net, and calls to reform the U.S. financial system.
- Three subjects, and the scope of the... social safety net is 8.9's Great Society still being argued about.
- Conservative beliefs regarding the need for traditional social values and a reduced role for government advanced in U.S. politics after 1980.
持续下去的辩论
- 围绕自由贸易协定、政府社会安全网的范围,以及改革美国金融体系的呼声,政策辩论持续进行。
- 三个主题,而社会安全网的……范围正是 8.9 的"伟大社会"仍在被争论。
- 关于传统社会价值观之必要与政府作用之缩减的保守主义信念,在 1980 年之后的美国政治中有所推进。
A policy enacted, an obstacle, or a continuing debate? · 一项实施的政策、一个障碍还是一个持续的争论?
Sort each element of the federal-role argument after 1980. · 对1980年后联邦角色论点的每个要素进行排序。
Select all · 所有 three policy debates the CED names. · 选择CED指出的全部三项政策辩论。
The safety net is 8.9's Great Society still argued about. · 社会保障网仍是8.9中大社会计划争议的焦点。
The obstacle to reducing government was democratic, not merely institutional. Efforts met with inertia and liberal opposition, as many programmes remained popular with voters — a programme people vote to keep is hard to cut whichever party holds office.
缩小政府规模的障碍是民主性的,而不只是制度性的。这些努力遇到了惯性与自由派的反对,因为许多项目在选民中仍然受欢迎——一个人们投票要保留的项目,无论哪个政党执政都难以削减。
Select all · 所有 four cultural debates the CED names. · 选择CED指出的全部四项文化辩论。
All four were already contested in 8.11 through 8.14. · 这四项都在8.11至8.14中已受到争议。
And cultural debates continued too
- Intense political and cultural debates continued over issues such as immigration policy, diversity, gender roles, and family structures.
- Four subjects, and all four were already contested in 8.11 through 8.14 — the CED's word is continued.
- So this subtopic's whole shape is continuation: the same arguments, with a different balance of power.
而文化辩论也在继续
- 围绕移民政策、多样性、性别角色与家庭结构等议题,激烈的政治与文化辩论持续进行。
- 四个主题,而这四个在 8.11 至 8.14 中就已被争夺——CED 的用词是持续。
- 因此本小节的整体形状是延续:同样的争论,只是力量对比不同。
This subtopic's shape is : the same arguments, a different balance of power. · 该子主题的形态是:相同的论点,但权力平衡不同。
The CED's own word is 'continued'. · CED自己的用词是“持续”。
Causes and effects, over time
- The objective is the causes and effects of continuing policy debates about the role of the federal government over time.
- Causes: a boundary the Constitution never fixed (3.9), and programmes that are both criticised and popular.
- Effects: tax cuts, continued deregulation, advanced conservative beliefs — and debates that continued rather than concluded.
随时间的成因与效果
- 这一目标是关于联邦政府作用的持续政策辩论随时间的成因与效果。
- 成因:一条宪法从未确定的界限(3.9),以及既被批评又受欢迎的那些项目。
- 效果:减税、持续的放松管制、被推进的保守主义信念——以及持续而非终结的辩论。
A party can win an election on a promise to cut spending and then discover that every line it proposes to cut has a constituency that also voted for it. The mandate and the obstacle came from the same voters.
一个政党可以凭削减开支的承诺赢得选举,然后发现它提议削减的每一项开支背后,都有一群同样投了它票的选民。授权与障碍来自同一批选民。
