新书发布：《印度政治中的金钱与肌肉》
2017年2月2日周四
Washington, DC
从巴西到尼日利亚，很多民主国家里罪犯们经常通过投票箱跻身政坛。在印度这个世界上最大的民主国家，多达三分之一的当选政客都遭到犯罪起诉。犯罪与政治之间的关联诱发了一系列复杂问题：自由与公平的选举怎么会与猖獗的犯罪行为共存？为什么诸多政党会积极招募那些具有行为不端的声誉的候选人？为什么选民会选举——并且通常还会再度选举——这些人？
在其开创性的新书《印度政治中的金钱与肌肉》（When Crime Pays:Money and Muscle in Indian Politics）中, 米兰·瓦希纳夫带领读者深入犯罪政治家的市场。借助竞选过程中的实地考察、大规模调查以及空前的关于政客们犯罪记录的数据，瓦希纳夫就其在民主国家薄弱环节的内在运作方面的研究成果进行了探讨。卡内基国际和平研究院院长威廉·伯恩斯为本次讨论致开场白。《华盛顿邮报》记者伊山·塔鲁尔主持讨论。
