一些重大事件)看作为革命性事件的可能促发因素。这种观点再一次反映了知识份子的
天真。笔者认为,大量的群体性事件对中国政治的稳定实际上有着巨大的正面作用。当
前不少地方的地方政府软弱,中国大规模爆发群体性抗争事件的阈值因此较低,社会矛
盾也不容易有大规模的堆积。此外,当前中央政府对地方发生的群体性抗争事件采取的
基本态度就是让地方政府自己去处理。只要地方政府能控制住局面,中央就保持袖手旁
观的姿态;但是如果地方政府让事件失控,或者在处理过程中造成了流血事件,在国内
外引起广泛关注,中央政府则会对地方政府官员进行处罚。中央政府的这一做法强化了
群体性事件参加者“反贪官不反皇帝”的心态,同时也促使地方政府在处理群体性事件
时表现出了极大的多样性和灵活性,从而大大缓解了中国群体性事件走向政治化的倾向。
