基金支持：该论文是2012年山西省哲学社会规划办课题《我国农村政治沟通弱化问题研究》
摘要：互联网催生了诸多网络政治行为，从而为中国政治的发展同时带来了机遇与挑战。网络政治沟通在民主政治中扮演重要角色，它的良性运作既可以为民意表达尤其是利益表达提供新的渠道，又有利于公共政策的制定与执行，并为国家与社会关系的重构提供助益。
当前我国农村地区网络政治沟通发展薄弱，这种局面与滞后的网络基础设施有关，同时也离不开政治文化的落后与法律制度的缺失。这些因素共同造就了作为沟通主体的农村人口与政府缺乏相应的需求与能力。再加之网络媒介本身存在局限性，农村地区网络政治沟通发展困难重重。
鉴于此，笔者力图结合我国农村实际情况提出具体对策建议。最为基本的在于通过信息化建设和普及网络教育来缩小信息鸿沟；同时应从农村人口与政府两方面变革政治文化，激发持久的沟通热情；另外，可从立法、电子政务、保障机制三个角度加强网络法制化建设。

Abstract: The Internet has spawned various kinds of network political behaviors and then has brought opportunities and challenges to China’s political development. Internet-mediated political communication plays a significant role in democratic politics. Its benign operation not only offers a new channel for the expression of public opinions especially interest concerns, but also promotes the formulation and implementation of public policies. It provides benefits for the refactoring of relations between state and society, either.
At present, Internet-mediated political communication develops weakly in rural areas in China, which relates to the lag of network infrastructure, the backwardness of political culture and the lack of laws and institutions. These factors together cause the lack of need and ability of communication subjects including rural population and governments. Meanwhile, the Internet has some limitations. So Internet-mediated political communication in rural areas develops with difficulties.
In view of this, the writer attempts to take the actual situation of rural areas into consideration and give some contract suggestions of countermeasures. The most fundamental is to narrow the information divide via informatization construction and network education. At the same time, political culture should be changed from rural population and governments to inspire lasting enthusiasm for the communication. In addition, the legalization and institutionalization construction should be strengthened from three perspectives of law, E-government and guarantee mechanism.
