国际组织工作人员中文使用状况及动因

Current Situation of Chinese Use by International Organization Staff

中国作为联合国创始成员国和联合国安理会常任理事国,其官方语言中文却在以联合国为核心的国际协作与交流中频频缺席,造成中文这一使用现状的原因究竟为何?本研究以联合国贸易和发展会议(贸发会议)和联合国粮食及农业组织(粮农组织)为例,通过对23位工作人员进行结构式访谈和开放式访谈,关注中文为何在国际组织工作使用中缺席,并从语言政策、语言价值和语言选择这三个维度展开讨论,发现国际组织中中文使用弱势的原因有三:一是联合国缺乏对中文作为组织工作语言的清晰认定;二是国际组织内中文的经济价值偏弱;三是中文国际推广的方式缺乏新意。针对上述原因,本文对中文摆脱这一缺席困境提出相应建议。
