“一带一路”与中国周边安全环境的重塑

“The Belt and Road” and the Reshaping of the Security Environment surrounding China

中国改革开放政策的成功,在很大程度上应该归功于有一个良好的周边环境。过去30多年,中国与周边国家之间建立了良好的、相互信任和理解的、互惠互利的关系,这样一种良性发展的周边环境,为中国的和平发展和走向世界提供了重要的桥梁、有力的战略支撑和可持续发展的资源供应。然而,近年来,中国与周边的关系出现逆转,周边环境出现一些新情况、新问题,相互之间的猜疑与不信任增加了,各种各样的纠纷与摩擦频繁发生,区域外大国的介入也日益加深。中国与周边国家的关系陷入了'经济上相互依存与安全困境并存'的矛盾之中,本文旨在探讨影响中国与周边国家关系的诸多因素,并寻求改善当前关系的突破口。

China’s success in its policy of reform and opening should be largely attributed to a favorable environment in its peripheral areas. In the past 30 years, China has established good relations with its neighboring countries that are characterized by mutual trust, mutual understanding, and mutual benefits. Such a favorable surrounding environment provides China with important links, effective strategic supports, and sustainable supply of resources that push forward China’s peaceful development and its closer connections with the world. However, there have been some reversions in China’s relations with its neighboring countries in recent years. In pace with the occurring of new situations and new problems in China’s neighboring areas, more distrusts and suspicions appear, and a variety of disputes and frictions become more frequent. Furthermore, big powers outside China’s neighboring areas are increasingly involved in these areas. The relations between China and its neighboring countries have already fallen into a trap of 'coexistence of economic interdependence and security dilemma'. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to identify the various factors that affect the relations between China and its neighboring countries and look for breakthrough points that may help to improve these relations.
