How do involuntary interactions with authoritarian institutions shape political engagement? The policy feedback literature suggests that interactions with authoritarian policies undercut political participation. However, research in racial and ethnic politics offers reason to believe that these experiences may increase citizens' engagement. Drawing on group attachment and discrimination research, we argue that mobilization is contingent on individuals' political psychological state. Relative to their counterparts, individuals with a politicized group identity will display higher odds of political engagement when exposed to authoritarian institutions. To evaluate our theory, we draw on the 2016 Collaborative Multiracial Post-Election Study to examine the experiences of Blacks, Latinos, and Asian Americans. For all subgroups and different types of institutions, we find that, for those with a politicized group identity, institutional contact is associated with higher odds of participation. Our research modifies the classic policy feedback framework, which neglects group-based narratives in the calculus of collective action.
与威权机构的非自愿互动如何塑造政治参与?政策反馈文献表明,与威权政策的互动会削弱政治参与。然而,种族和族裔政治方面的研究提供了理由让人相信,这些经历可能会增加公民的参与度。借鉴群体依恋和歧视研究,我们认为动员取决于个人的政治心理状态。相对于同龄人,具有政治化群体身份的个人在接触威权机构时,政治参与的几率会更高。为了评估我们的理论,我们利用2016年多族裔选举后合作研究来考察黑人、拉丁裔和亚裔美国人的经历。对于所有亚群体和不同类型的机构,我们发现,对于那些具有政治化群体身份的人来说,与机构的接触与更高的参与几率相关。我们的研究修正了经典的政策反馈框架,该框架在集体行动的计算中忽略了基于群体的叙事。
