从“随势”到“谋势”——有关中国进一步和平发展的战略思考

China's New Strategy for Peaceful Development:From Tide-Surfing to Tide-Making

中国经过60年特别是改革开放30多年的快速发展,已实现阶段性和平发展。随势而不逆势是中国实现和平发展最重要的历史经验。2008年爆发的全球金融危机尽管给中国和平发展带来前所未有的严峻挑战,但中国经济增长的相对优势、明显加快的多极化进程、中国国际影响力的日益上升和国际社会"中国观"的理性化,却使中国处于相对得势地位,从而成为中国续写和平发展篇章的重要历史机遇。为进一步推进和平发展,打造世界级强国,加深外部世界对中国和平发展的认同和适应,中国应善于乘势和用势,并从经济增长、战略地位、国际影响和国家形象等方面积极造势和谋势,在坚持韬光养晦的同时,更积极主动地有所作为,将战略重点从"务实"过渡到"务势"。

After 60 years' development and especially the fast growth in the past 30 years' opening and reform,China has arrived at a certain stage of its peaceful development. Rising with the tide of the times rather than against it is the most significant historical experience for China. The global financial crisis erupted in 2008 has brought about both unprecedented challenges and historical opportunities for China to start a new chapter of its peaceful development story. China now is in a comparatively upper-hand position due to its advantages in economic growth,the accelerated process of multipolarization,the growing international influences and the positive change of world views towards China. It is time for China to shift its strategy from tide-surfing to tide-making in lifting its economic growth,strategic position,international influence,and national image. While 'keeping a low profile,' China needs to make more efforts in 'doing something,' with its strategic focus gradually moving from winning short-term gains towards keeping long-term advantages.
