美国人的民族特性那天美国政经概况的老师提到一个很老的问题：美国经济发展至今成为世界第一的原因有哪些？说实话这个问题的确很老了，被无数学者讨论了无数次。

那天思维没有打开，没想出什么有新意的答案，什么专利权，地理优势，世界大战.......也许是真的积累越来越匮乏了，思考了几天才想出这么一个比较牵强的来。

首先，美国的民族特性到底是什么？我不敢说我说的就是正确答案，但是在我看来有三：自由，自律，爱国。

自由这个我只有一句话解释：不自由，毋宁死——Patrick Henry。

好吧，也许你会说美国的的无政府主义，新自由主义等等，好吧，这是真的，但是无政府主义不算主流，新自由主义也不是完全的自由。

自律，这里的自律才是关键，这里的自律并不是字面意义上的自律，而是以契约的方式推下来的民族特性。

我不是道各位怎么想，反正在我眼里这完全就是卢梭的社会契约论举出自己认同的第三方来约束自己。

这是从“五月号公约”开始所继承的完全体现，事实证明，启蒙学者灿若星斗，最终胜利的只有卢梭。

现在说为什么这重要，以及为什么与美国经济有关。

首先，五月花公约阐述了国家的来源，国家是民众以契约的形式合意组建的，国家的公权力来自于民众所度让的部分权利的组合。

也就是说，国家的权力是人民做给予的，而人民根据契约的原则必须服从自己所推举出的这个公权力的约束，这就是关键。

我们先反观独立战争，为什么小小的印花税会惹来如此之大的风波？究其原因就在于这不是美国人民自己所推举出的公权力，美国人民没有义务服从你，这是一种无端的迫害。

美国建国近四百年，天赋人权，民赋国权这一理念已经融入了美国人的血液里，这已经成为了一种习惯，一种思维定势。

总的来说美国人有以下特性：1、移民国家形成的合众社会。

这个年青的国家之所以得以发展壮大,不因善于发现而因善于探索，它的繁荣兴旺不是因为其尽善尽美的治事之道,而是由于其机灵多变的精神。

2、移民生活形成的务实精神。

美国的早期历史确实发人深省，他们对全人类所作的启示，不是空洞的告诫而是实际的行动。
