地位满意度与印度的国际机制合作行为

Status Satisfaction and Cooperative Behavior in International Regimes:A Case Study of India

近年来,印度愈发注重通过参与国际机制合作来提升本国的国际地位,并在不同的国际机制中展现出差异性的合作行为。既有研究缺乏对印度在不同机制中合作行为的比较,因此本文结合角色理论,在分析框架中引入“地位”这一变量来阐释印度的国际机制合作行为。“地位满意度”是指一国在国际机制中的实际地位与预期地位的比较和匹配,不同的“地位满意度”将引发不同的国家角色建构,并最终导致特定的国家行为。案例分析表明,作为新兴崛起国的印度具有追求国际地位的强烈动机,其在联合国安全理事会、南亚国家区域合作联盟以及“印太经济框架”中分别建构了“变革者”“控制者”以及“有限合作者”的角色,并展现了相应的合作行为。研究表明,虽然印度对于参与国际机制合作乃至多边主义的态度日趋积极,但鉴于其一贯的自利做法,恐难以在国际机制合作中真正践行多边主义原则。

In recent years,India has increasingly focused on enhancing its international status through participation in international regimes,exhibiting varied cooperative behaviors across different frameworks.The existing literature lacks a comparative analysis of India’s cooperative behaviors within these regimes.This article addresses this gap by combining role theory with the“status”variable in its analytical framework,introducing the concept of“status satisfaction.”This concept stems from comparing a country’s actual status with its expected status within a regime.Different levels of“status satisfaction”can lead to distinct national role constructions and,consequently,specific national behaviors.Case analyses demonstrate that,as an emerging power,India has a strong desire for institutional status.India has adopted the roles of“changer,”“controller,”and“limited collaborator”in the United Nations Security Council,the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation,and the Indo-Pacific Economic Framework,respectively,and has pursued corresponding cooperative behaviors.The findings suggest that although India’s stance toward international regime cooperation and multilateralism is increasingly positive,its persistent self-interest hinders the genuine promotion of multilateral principles in international cooperation.
