美国债务上限提高过程中的两党政治博弈及其影响

Abstract:The dispute on debt ceiling increase between the Republican and the Democratic parties was settled temporarily with compromise in 2011. However, the political game between the two parties has reduced U.S. national credit and exposed its deep-rooted problems in domestic politics. The political crisis triggered by the debt ceiling increase induced suspicions on the Obama administration's ability to govern and hit the international community's confidence in the United States' ability to solve its domestic problems. The relevant fiscal problems will also profoundly affect U.S.'s ability and methods to intervene in international affairs.
