What is (de)politicization and what is wrong with it?
Abstract
Abstract This article attempts to clarify the meaning of (de)politicization. Politicization sometimes refers to the inappropriate intrusion of partisan loyalties in nonpolitical social domains ( affective politicization ). Politicization can also constitute an ideal of civic agency and energy ( contestatory politicization ). In other contexts, politicization is meant as a kind of institutional corruption, in which government decisions are made for the sake of sectional advantage ( patrimonial politicization ). It can also refer to the imposition of controversial values judgments by ostensibly neutral institutions like the courts and bureaucracy ( values politicization ). These concepts raise divergent normative considerations of varying weightiness. This article motivates the potency of a fifth concept of politicization, which centers on the category of authoritative rule ( archic politicization ). It offers an ideal–typical contrast between political rule and depoliticized power, and it treats the distinct justifications for and objections to the substitution of depoliticized, impersonal reason for authoritative, political will.

何为（去）政治化，其问题何在？
摘要
本文试图澄清（去）政治化的含义。政治化有时指党派忠诚不适当地侵入非政治的社会领域（情感型政治化）。政治化也可构成一种公民能动性与活力的理想（抗争型政治化）。在其他语境中，政治化意指一种制度性腐败，即政府决策为部分人的利益而作出（家产制政治化）。它还可指法院和官僚机构等表面上中立的机构强加有争议的价值判断（价值型政治化）。这些概念引出了不同且重要性各异的规范性考量。本文论证第五种政治化概念的效力，该概念以权威性统治这一范畴为核心（权威统治型政治化）。它提供了政治统治与去政治化权力之间的理想类型对比，并讨论以去政治化的、非人格化的理性取代权威性的政治意志所得到的各种辩护与反对理由。
