中美“共管台独”:历史经验与启示

China-U. S. “Joint Management of the Taiwan Independence Movement”: Historical Lessons and Implications

2000—2008年,中美为遏制台湾当局的"台独"分裂活动寻求合作,有效管控了两国在台湾问题上的分歧,这是中美"共管台独"的战略新思路。美国向中国保证不支持"台独",中国对美国在台湾问题上所充当的角色重新进行评估,要求美国政府不对台湾当局释放错误信号,对台湾当局施加压力以制衡"激进台独"的分裂活动,从而维护台海地区的和平与稳定。在台湾问题上,中国的底线是推进国家统一和坚决反对"台独",美国的底线是反对采取非和平方式解决台湾问题。台湾问题是中国的核心利益和重大关切,妥善处理台湾问题是确保中美关系稳定健康发展的关键。有鉴于此,本文以21世纪第一个十年中,中美两国管控在台湾问题上的分歧之言行作为研究案例,在回顾中美"共管台独"历史的基础上,总结历史经验与教训,为中美关系超越"修昔底德陷阱"提供启迪。

During 2000-2008 China and the United States put aside their disagreements and cooperated to manage the“Independence Movement”in Taiwan.This is the beginning of a new framework of“Joint Management of the Taiwan Independence Movement”.Under this new framework,Washington pledges to oppose“Taiwan Independence”,cease sending misleading signals to Taiwan,and pressure Taiwan against radical pro-independence activities.The two countries have different bottom lines with regard to cross-strait issues:for China,it is national reunification and opposition to Taiwan independence,while for the U.S.,it opposes non-peaceful means to solve the Taiwan Question.Because Taiwan is China s core interest and key concern,thus it is extremely important to manage the Taiwan Question in Sino-U.S.relations.This paper examines China and American disagreements and cooperation Taiwan Question from 2000 to 2008,and analyzes the lessons learned from it and the implication for the bilateral relations.
