蓝色经济通道的概念、理论基础及中国维护蓝色经济通道安全的路径

The definition, theoretical basis of the blue economic channel and China’s path to safeguard the blue economic channel

不同于海上交通线和海上战略通道,蓝色经济通道具有安全、政治、经济、地理、文化等多层面的含义,致力于可持续利用海洋资源,实现全人类的可持续发展,重点关注小岛屿发展中国家和沿岸最不发达国家,是一条海上大通道、海上合作平台,而不是具体的交通线、咽喉要道、海峡或海上交通线附近的战略岛屿。蓝色经济通道的海上大通道、海上合作平台内涵决定了其拥有理论基底。复合相互依赖理论、全球海洋治理理论、地理环境理论是其理论基底。安全维度是蓝色经济通道的最基本内涵。维护海上安全是发展蓝色经济的重要保障。

Different from maritime transportation lines and maritime strategic channels, the blue economic channel has multi-level meanings such as security, politics, economy, geography,and culture. It is committed to the sustainable use of marine resources and the sustainable development of mankind. Small island developing States and coastal least developed countries are a large maritime channel and a platform for maritime cooperation, rather than a specific transportation line, throat, strategic island near a strait or maritime transportation line. The connotation of the blue economic channel and the maritime cooperation platform determines its theoretical basis. Compound interdependence theory, global ocean governance theory, and geographical environment theory are its theoretical foundations. The security dimension is the most basic connotation of the blue economic channel. Maintaining maritime security is an important guarantee for the development of a blue economy.
