美国例外论是美国霸权主义对外政策的思想基础

American Exceptionalism is the Ideological Basis for the US Hegemonic Foreign Policy

今年9月,俄罗斯总统普京撰文批评美国对外政策的"美国例外论",引发美国官方及媒体专栏作家的反弹。长期以来,推行霸权主义一直是美国的基本对外政策,其思想基础就是"美国例外论"。"美国例外论"思想早在美国建国时就产生并指导美国对外扩张的"天命论"思想,为美国对外推行帝国-霸权主义政策辩护。冷战结束后,美国一超独大,更加无视一切国际法,接连发动对外侵略战争,或滥用联合国安理会决议扩大动武范围,或抛开联合国安理会采取单边主义行动,或打着民主旗号干涉别国内政,奥巴马更是肆无忌惮地利用现代技术监控各国政治、外交、经济和军事情况,在反恐中不顾主权国家的反对杀害无辜平民,把美国自己制造的金融和经济危机转嫁其他国家,等等。美国对外政策的思想基础——"例外论",理应受到国际社会的批评。

For a long time, it has been the main feature of the US foreign policy to pursue hegemonism, the basis of which is American exceptionalism. The idea of American exceptionalism came into being as early as the founding of the US, which has fostered the thinking of 'asparaginase' that guided the US expansion and served as an excuse for its pursuing imperialistic and hegemonic foreign policies. Since the end of the Cold War, the US, the remaining superpower in the world, has launched successive invasions regardless of the international laws, or ill-used the UN Security Council resolutions to expand the scale of military operations, or abandoned the UN Security Council resolutions to take unilateral actions, or interfered into other nations' internal affairs in the name of promoting democracy. Moreover, President Obama has recklessly monitored the political, diplomatic, economic and military developments of other nations by modern technology, killed innocent civilians in the counterterrorist operations disregarding the protests ofsovereign states, and shifted the financial and economic crisis of its own making onto other nations. The idea of American exceptionalism, the ideological basis of the US foreign policy, should have been criticized by the international community.
