波将金村庄

短语“波将金村”最初是用来描述一个虚假的村庄,仅为给人留下印象而被虚构出来。

波将金村庄(俄语:потёмкинские деревни),有时又被译作波特金村庄。在现代政治和经济中,“波将金村庄”指专门用来给人虚假印象的建设和举措。

格里戈里·波将金为了这次出巡而组建的“亚马逊军团”向叶卡捷琳娜二世致敬

这个词原指用来骗人的村庄。1787年,在叶卡捷琳娜二世出巡因为俄土战争获胜而得到的克里米亚的途中,格里戈里·波将金第聂伯河两岸布置了可移动的村庄来欺骗女皇及随行的大使们。在现代政治和经济中,“波将金村庄”指专门用来给人虚假印象的建设和举措。

考据 编辑

叶卡捷琳娜二世出巡的Charles-Joseph, Prince de Ligne有异说,指出波将金的建设大部分货真价实(至少是为了取悦女皇才做少量形象加强,粉刷规模不大),并非虚假。他指出人们创造“波将金村庄”一词以毁谤波将金[1]
