英文文献摘要:
This study explores the relationship between social media and democracy in a cross- section of over 125 countries around the world. We find the evidence of a strong, positive correlation between Facebook penetration (a proxy for social media) and democracy. We further show that the correlation between social media and democracy is stronger for low-income countries than high-income countries. Our lowest point estimates indicate that a one-standard deviation (about 18 percentage point) increase in Facebook penetration is associated with about 8-point (on a scale of 0–100) increase for the world sample and over 11 points improvement for low-income countries.
本研究在全球超过125个国家的横截面上探讨了社交媒体与民主之间的关系。我们发现Facebook渗透率(社交媒体的代表)和民主之间存在着强烈的正相关关系。我们进一步表明,社会媒体和民主之间的相关性在低收入国家比高收入国家更强。我们的最低估计表明,Facebook渗透率每增加一个标准差(约18个百分点),全球样本水平就会增加约8个百分点(以0-100为分值),低收入国家则会提高11个百分点以上。
