中国参与东盟主导的地区机制的利益分析

An Analysis of China's Interests in Involvement in the ASEAN-Led Regional Regimes

本文旨在分析影响中国参与东盟主导的地区机制 (东盟地区论坛、“10 +1”以及“10 + 3”)的因素。作者认为中国参与上述机制与三大利益考虑有关 :政治与安全利益 (维持稳定的周边环境、促进多极化、消除“中国威胁论”、扩大影响力、避免台湾地区与东盟国家建立实质关系 )、经济利益 (实施“走出去”战略、推动地区经济一体化 )以及形象利益(建立负责任大国形象 )。本文的中心思想是 :中国对地区性国际机制日益积极的参与 ,除了是基于对政治、经济与安全利益的考虑外 。

The essay analyzes the factors influencing China's participation in the regional regimes (i.e.,the ASEAN Regional Forum ,“10+1,”as well as“10+3”) in which the ASEAN takes the lead.The essay argues that China's involvement in the aforementioned regimes involves three kinds of interest considerations,namely political and security interests ,economic interests ,and prestige or image interests.The political and security interests include the preservation of stability in the neighboring environment,the promotion of a multipolar system,the removal of fears of a“China threat,”expansion of its influence ,and preventing Taiwan from establishing a substantive relationship with the ASEAN countries.The economic interests include implementation of the“go outside”strategy and advancement of regional integration.The prestige or image interests include the establishment of a responsible big power.The main idea of the essay is that China takes an active part in the regional international regimes not only out of concerns about political,economic,and security interests,but also due to changes in identity.
