冷战后美国东南亚政策的调适

The Adjustment of U.S Policy toward Southeast Asia in the Post-Cold War Era

冷战后,在全球化进程的加速推动下,美国把开放市场和自由贸易作为其在东南亚的外交重点。随着东南亚区域重要性的提升和区域主义进程的深化,美国开始酝酿并着手制定对东南亚的长期外交战略:一定程度的军事存在以保障其区域利益安全;在巩固和加强现有区域同盟关系的基础上,进一步发展新的伙伴关系和双边关系;积极参与东南亚的区域主义进程并通过各种机制和合作方式影响这一进程;警惕和防止其他力量对美国在这一区域的利益构成威胁。通过这些战略,美国试图在东南亚地区取得主导地位,建构符合美国意愿的秩序,维护并实现其利益。

With the accelerated development of globalization after the Cold War, the United States has focused its diplomatic efforts on the open market and free trade in Southeast Asia. Based on its perception of the increasing importance of Southeast Asia and of the deepening process of regionalism in the area, the U.S. begins to formulate its long - term strategy in the region. It includes to maintain certain military presence to protect its regional interests; to strengthen the relationship with its regional allies and develop new partnership and hi-lateral relationship; to actively participate in the regionalism of Southeast Asia and influence its process through various regimes and cooperation; to stay alert and try to prevent the activities of other powers from threatening its interests in the region. The U. S desires to assume a dominant role in the region and establish an order which is both responsive and conducive to its will and interests.
