拉美国家与亚太区域经济一体化——合作进展与观念趋向

Latin America Economies and Asia-Pacific Regional Economic Integration: Progress and Attitudes

进入21世纪以来,随着地区间制度框架协定的不断搭建,拉美与亚太地区间经济交往日益加深,亚太地区已成为拉美地区最具活力的经贸合作伙伴。在美国主导推进跨太平洋伙伴关系协定、中国和东盟着力倡导区域全面经济伙伴关系、亚太自由贸易区逐步取得进展的背景下,拉美国家对亚太地区日趋多元化的区域经济合作格局受到广泛关注,以重点参与、积极推进的态度开展地区间合作,其中墨西哥、智利、秘鲁、哥伦比亚和哥斯达黎加等太平洋东岸拉美国家表现尤其突出。拉美次区域合作机制太平洋联盟则普遍被视为成员国融入亚太的重要平台。考虑到当前中拉合作所面临的机遇和挑战,拉美国家对待亚太经贸合作的这一立场与态度,有助于中国在推动拉美地区与亚太地区的地区间合作中发挥更为积极和主动的作用。

Since the beginning of the twenty-first century, with the continuous construction of inter-regional institutional frameworks, the economic interaction between Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region has been deepening, and the Asia-Pacific region has become the most dynamic economic and trade partner of Latin America economies. The advancement of the U.S.-led Trans-Pacific Partnership and the RCEP process led by China and ASEAN have attracted growing attention from Latin American countries, especially those along the Pacific coastline like Mexico, Chile, Peru, Colombia, and Costa Rica, which are actively participating in and positively promoting cooperation in the Asia-Pacific. Sub-regional cooperation arrangement – the Pacific Alliance is generally regarded as an important platform for member countries to integrate into the Asia-Pacific region. Considering the opportunities and challenges presented by the current China-Latin America cooperation, the attitude and position of the Latin American countries toward Asia-Pacific regional economic cooperation will be helpful for China to play a more active and initiative role in promoting regional cooperation between Latin America and the Asia-Pacific.
