中国周边形势新变化与周边命运共同体构建

2017年以来,中国周边安全和经济形势发生重大变化。在安全上,美国以推动"印太"战略、强化美日和美韩同盟、借议题拉拢东盟等手段将战略布局深度集中到中国的周边地区;法国、英国、德国、欧盟也紧随其后,开始深度介入"印太"地区的经济合作、安全事务和互联互通进程。在经济上,全球化已进入"慢速"阶段且越来越以区域化的方式展开;而机器人、3D打印技术和可再生能源的发展和运用将继续推动区域化进程,周边国家与中国的经济联系对双方来说都更为重要。无论是在安全上还是在经济上,周边地区对中国发展的重要性都在迅速上升。中国应更加重视周边外交在总体外交布局中的地位,要总结历史和当代中国营造良好周边环境的经验;争取处理好中美日、中美韩、中日韩、中俄印等一些大三角关系;将周边地区打造成为中国构建新发展格局的节点和高质量推动"一带一路"建设的引领示范地区;积极提供地区公共产品,推动构建周边命运共同体。

New Developments in China’s Peripheries and the Building of a Neighboring Community with a Shared Future

Significant security and economic changes have taken place in China’s neighborhood since 2017. In an attempt to increase regional deterrent capabilities, Washington has shored up its Indo-Pacific strategy by fostering closer defense ties with Tokyo and Seoul and courting ASEAN on specific issues on the one hand, and encourage European allies like France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the European Union to take similar steps, for example, expanding economic and trade links and ramping up security presence. There is a growing tendency toward regionalization as globalization meets major setbacks, a process likely to be accelerated by the development and deployment of robots, 3 D printing, renewable energy, and other emerging technologies, presenting new opportunities for China to strengthen ties with neighboring countries. Beijing should further elevate the importance of its peripheries in its foreign policy planning by improving its relationships with regional stakeholders like Japan, South Korea, India, Russia, ASEAN, and the United States, turning itself into a hub of new regional development, actively providing regional public goods, and facilitating the building of a neighboring community with a shared future.
