网络空间的中美关系:竞争、冲突与合作

在中美关系各领域,网络空间问题在极短时间具有了极其重要的意义。网络空间不仅对传统中美关系形成了冲击,而且还引发了相应的博弈与竞争,如网络空间治理权之争、网络战略优势竞争,以及与之相随的网络技术优势的夺取、网络军备竞赛和网络话语权竞争等。网络事务管理的主权性与网络空间运行的开放性之间的矛盾构成中美关系网络冲突的根源。网络空间的全球性及世界各国所面临的网络信息安全等共同威胁,促成了中美关系在网络空间的合作,如在网络治理的国际制度建设、应对网络犯罪、技术合作、网络冲突控制等方面。避免网络空间的中美关系走向安全困境,需要相对稳定的实践。对网络监管和网络主权的认同、建立中美网络空间的战略互信是实践的重要方面。

This article explores the personal spatialities of the majority of inhabitants in Estonia and Sweden. The author analyzed survey data and used variables about the perception of cultural distances, interest in receiving news from other countries via mass media, and contacts with people from these countries. The analysis suggests a hypothesis that in Estonia, personal spatiality is shaped primarily by institutional factors (e.g. the media, the economy). In Sweden, the formation of personal spatiality is based on versatile sources and is more autonomous with regard to the media than in a transition country such as Estonia. The analysis also demonstrates that the symbolic division of the world into East and West shapes the imagined Nordic and Baltic space and people's thinking patterns about ‘others’.
