冷战后法国对非军事干预路径演变解析——从密特朗到希拉克

The Evolution of French Military Intervention in Africa after the Cold War

从密特朗后期到希拉克时期是法国对非军事干预路径大变革时期。法国决策者根据变化的国际环境,结合自身实力,面对非洲地区的突发事件,因势利导推动法国对非军事干预路径从冷战时期的单边方式转变为推动联合国、欧盟、非盟和西共体等国际或区域与次区域组织参与。这种演变并不意味着法国对非军事干预路径真正走向多边。这种调整的出发点在于维护法国在非洲的国家利益,增强法国的大国地位。

The period from Mitterrand to Chirac was a period of great changes in French military intervention in Africa.The French decision-makers,based on the changing international environment,took advantage of the emergencies in Africa to change its intervention style from unilateral during the Cold War to multilateral thereafter.France’s intervention was legitimated by its participation in the United Nations,the European Union,the African Union,and regional and sub-regional organizations such as ECOWAS.However,it does not mean that France ’s military intervention in Africa was truly multilateral.The aim of its change was to safeguard France ’s national interests and enhance its status as a great power.
