日本的东亚合作战略评析——区域性公共产品的视角

An Analysis on Japan's East Asian Regional Cooperation Strategy:from the Perspective of Regional Public Goods

区域性公共产品的供给和消费是分析东亚区域合作的一个新的理论视角。二战结束以来,日本在不同阶段提供了各种形态的区域性公共产品,这成为日本促进东亚经济一体化和实现自身大国外交战略的核心途径之一。为了实现最优供给模式,日本经历了从单向供给到机制建设的转变。在此过程中,日本分别遵循"开放的地区主义"和"竞争性合作"等原则,处理和协调与域外大国和域内大国的关系,并力图通过"加权总和"和"最优环节"等供给方式缓解战略意图与供给能力之间的矛盾。

The production and consumption of regional public goods is a new perspective to analyze East Asian regional cooperation. Since the end of World War II, the provision of various types of regional public goods has been a core approach for Japan to pro/note East Asian economic integration and to realize its diplomatic strategy. In order to achieve an optimal effect, Japan has gradually shifted its efforts from a unilateral supply model to one that focuses more on institution building. During this process, Japan has managed to coordinate its relations with other big powers within and outside of this region, based respectively on the principles of ＂open regionalism＂ and ＂competitive cooperation＂. In addition, by means of ＂summarization＂ and ＂the best shot＂, Japan also endeavored to reconcile the asymmetry between its strategic intention and supply capability at providing regional public goods. Japan＇s historical experiences provide systemic inputs to China~ s formulation of its East Asian Regional Cooperation strategy, tactics, and setting of interim objectives.
