“Track Ⅱ Diplomacy”,Think Tank Network and Public Diplomacy

随着公共外交的快速发展,智库成为公共外交的参与主体之一,发挥着重要且独特的作用。其中,智库网络作为一种网络化的智库组织形式,在开展公共外交的过程中,能够在对话交流、引导舆论和开展人文交流等领域更好地扩大受众面和影响力。本文以“亚洲区域合作智库网络”参与“二轨外交”的实践为例,对智库网络参与公共外交的方式、特点进行梳理分析,并提出进一步加强智库网络能力建设、推动公共外交发展的初步思考。

With the rapid development of public diplomacy,think tanks have become one of the public diplomacy players,demonstrating an important and unique role.In particular,think tank network,as a networking form of think tanks,can better expand the audience and influence in the fields of dialogue and exchange,guiding public opinion and carrying out people-to-people exchanges in the process of conducting public diplomacy.This paper takes the practice of the“think tank network for Asian regional cooperation”in its participation in“track II diplomacy”as an example to analyze the ways and features of think tank network in public diplomacy,and puts forward some preliminary thoughts on further strengthening the capacity building of think tank networks and promoting the development of public diplomacy.
