新欧洲政策与英国“三环”外交的形成

The New European Policy and the Fonnation of the British Diplomacy of "Three Circles

均势和孤立主义是英国欧洲政策的一贯立场,但二战的后果使这一传统政策在战后初期发生了转变。英国不但企图拉住欧洲,缔造“世界第三力量”,而且第一次在和平时期主动与欧洲国家结盟。这是英国欧洲外交在观念和实践上的真正变化。这种变化所引起的政策调整促成了“三环”外交的形成。

Both equilibrium and isolationism were constantly European policies that the Great Britain insisted on, but the influence of World War II changed the situation. In later years of 1940' s Great Britain not only tried to take advantage of Europe to build up the 'world third force' , but also positively formed an alliance with Western European states for the first time in the peaceful period. This was really a theoretical and practical change in Great Britain' s foreign policy. The change led to appearance of three circles diplomacy of Great Britain.
