全球化、社会变化与中国外交

Globalization, Social Change, and Chinese Diplomacy

在对中国外交的研究中,社会变化或者社会问题的影响问题一直受到忽视。作者强调了外交政策中社会变化问题的重要性,试图提出而非回答一些问题。中国卷入全球化已经带来了基本的社会变化。在过去20多年中,全球化不仅改变了中国经济而且影响了中国社会。尽管如此,中国整体的外交政策仍然由传统意义上的、国家为中心的日程所主导,尚未有效地回应来自全球化的社会挑战。作者还就一系列问题(如中国到底如何形成系统的全球治理主张、如何保护全球化下的中国社会、如何调整中国的国际道义外交等)提出了一些看法。

In this paper, instead of merely answering questions, the author puts before us a new issue. He argues that social change is of great importance to study diplomacy. Globalization has always been accompanied by complicated social changes. Over the past two decades, the Chinese economy and society have undergone a process of globalization. Globalization has changed state-society and market-society relations, but it has never alleviated the role of the state in making foreign policies and dealing with foreign affairs. The author holds that the theme of Chinese diplomacy should be to meet the global challenges, including the social changes. Finally, the author elaborates on his views of how China can formulate systematic propositions on global governance, how to protect Chinese society against globalization, and what adjustments can be made to China’s international moral diplomacy.
