从地理边疆到“利益边疆”——冷战结束以来西方边疆理论的演变

From Geographical Borderland to "Interests Borderland"--The Evolvement of Borderland Theory of the West since the World War Ⅱ

边疆是历史的产物,属于一定的历史范畴。全球化使国家利益开始突破本土地理疆界向全球拓展。20世纪80年代中期,美国等西方大国从维护自身利益的需要出发,确定战略控制范围,首先提出了“利益边疆”概念,全球化则进一步催生了利益边疆。这个过程与美国等西方大国推行强权政治和世界霸权主义联系在一起,对此,包括中国在内的广大发展中国家应有清醒的认识。

Borderland is the outcome of history and belongs to certain category of history. Globalization makes each country's interests break through its own geographical boundary and expand into the seven seas. In the mid of 1980s,US and some other western big powers, in order to meet the requirements to vindicate their own interests and confirm the strategic ranges to control, first put forwards the concept of 'Interests Borderland'. The globalization makes the interest borderland come into being. This progress has connected with the power politics and hegemonism pushed by US and other western powers. Therefore all the developing countries including China should be level-headed.
