欧洲联盟与拉丁美洲的对话

Dialogue between the European Union and Latin America

欧盟与拉丁美洲通过区域、次区域和国家间的固定对话机制建立了两大地区间多层次、多领域、多角色的"战略伙伴"关系。这一被称为"对话"的地区间关系模式是全球力量平衡和国际秩序建构的组成部分,也是地区间政治、经济和文化互动的主要途径和方式,其发展的主要动力来自两大地区内部,但对双方各自的国际定位和内部演变以及两大地区以外的国家具有重要的影响。

A 'strategic partnership' has been developed since 1990s between the European Union and Latin America, which is only a reflection of the unique form of a far more complicated network of relationships between the two large regions. Europe-Latin America relations, which are duly dubbed 'dialogues', constitute one alternative for a new international order as well as part of the global game of geopolitics. While the main basis of the partnership is political dialogue and a procedural component of a highly institutionalized process has been exercised, economic factors have become increasingly significant in the past years. It is to a great extent that the building-up and strengthening of the relationship have depended upon the internal developments within each region, but exerted important effects upon the two regions’ own international roles and the international affairs by and large.
