5．社会分化的结果。

三、论述题（每题20分，共40分）1．试述政治统治与政治管理的联系与区别。

2．最常见的决策方法有哪几种，请分别概述之。

参考答案中国人民大学1999年硕士研究生入学考试试题考试科目：综合考试一、名词解释（每题4分，共20分）1．政治关系:政治关系是人们在社会生活中，基于特定的利益要求而形成的，以政治强制力量和权力和权利分配为特征的社会关系。

政治关系内含三个层次的递进关系，第一层次，是利益关系，是由人们的需求引起的，由特定的社会经济关系决定的利益关系；第二层次，人们为了实现自己的利益要求，结成特定的社会政治力量，并在这种力量对比关系中形成了政治权力关系；第三层次，人们依据政治力量的对比即政治权力关系，确定人们进行政治利益分配的资格，从而构成了政治权利关系。

政治关系是人类社会政治的本质内容，一切其他政治现象都是政治关系的外化和具体形态表现，而政治关系的发展变化，也必然要表现为人类社会全部政治的发展和变化。

2．目标管理：目标管理是一种通过组织管理者共同参与制定和实现目标的管理方法。

1954年，美国学者P·德鲁克在《管理实践》一书中提出了目标管理的概念和方法。

目标管理通常指一个组织的上下级管理者共同确定组织目标，或将组织目的和任务转化为组织目标，将这些目标分解到每一个管理者的责任范围内，并利用这些目标指导活动和评价每一个管理者的贡献。

从20世纪70年代起，目标管理就广泛地运用到政府管理中。

但是目标管理也有一些缺陷，如目标管理有时会使领导人过分为达成少数目标而花费精力，甚至会造成思维方式地片面性。

Give us this nada our daily nada and nada us our nada as we nada our nadas and nada us not into nada but deliver us from nada; pues nada. Hail nothing full of nothing, nothing is with thee.

It was too late at night for conversation.“You want another copita?” the barman asked.“No, thank you,” said the waiter and went out. He disliked bars and bodegas.
