传染病与安全研究的现状与思考

Epidemics and Security Studies

传染病与安全研究的兴起与冷战后国际安全格局的变动及全球性问题的密不可分。该领域的研究成果在冷战结束后开始出现并逐渐增加,为安全研究增添了新的内容,但目前还不够成熟,存在争论。由于传染病具有突发、多变及后果严重等特征,同时,安全的概念也不是静止的,因此,对传染病与安全问题的考察需要立足于动态和战略高度。

The rise of studies on epidemics and security issues is closely related to the transformation of international security environment after the Cold War and the increasing importance of global issues. A number of achievements in this field have enriched existing security studies,but the field itself is still not mature and major debates are unsettled. Epidemics are characterized by sudden changes and severe consequences and the concept of security is not static,so we need to take a dynamic and strategic perspective to study epidemics and security issues.
