大国双边关系的另一种记述与解读——评《中外关系鉴览1950—2005—中国与大国关系定量衡量》

《中外关系鉴览1950—2005——中国与大国关系定量衡量》一书,是清华大学国际问题研究所的学者新近出版的一部运用事件数据分析方法进行国家双边关系定量衡量的著述。该书系统梳理了建国以来中外关系的发展情况,覆盖了几乎所有对7组大国关系有影响的重要事件,根据记录绘制了中外双边关系曲线,得到一系列有意义和启发性的分析结论,并建立了一个庞大完整的中外双边关系数据库。这在中国国际问题研究领域具有开创性意义。但该书也存在一些不足和需要完善之处,有待后来者继续挖掘,不断探索。

成熟文明的冲突?——评唐纳德·帕查拉《国际关系中的理论与历史》

近些来年,在具有浓厚科学行为主义氛围的美国国际关系学界,历史研究方法似乎有抬头之势。例如,约翰·米尔斯海默(John J.Mearshei mer)在《大国政治的悲剧》一书中恢复了摩根索纵横历史的传统,尽管加进了很多的数据分析,但全书有一种历史的穿透力。①美国南卡罗莱纳州大学唐纳德·帕查拉(Donald J.Puchala,1939~)教授的《国际关系中的理论与历史》一书也应算是这些“历史型”国际关系著作中的一本。②但与其他作者不同的是,帕查拉不是把历史事件简单地视为一种论据来使用,他穿过长达数千年的历史隧道,考察了一个宏大的历史现象——文明的…     

理性、经济学、改革自由主义与发展:以韩国为例

中国的美国早期史研究:回顾与前瞻

晚清士人在最初接触美国历史知识时,就曾涉及早期的重要事件和人物。魏源在《海国图志》中提到了美国立国的历史;徐继?在所著《瀛环志略》中,则对乔治.华盛顿和美国建国史做了一些介绍。到20世纪初年,美国革命、华盛顿和《美国宪法》的名称以及相关史事,不时出现在中国改革派和

诗散文:布罗茨基的《悲伤与理智》

杰出的俄语诗人布罗茨基同时也是一位杰出的英语散文家。他生前最后一部散文集《悲伤与理智》是他散文创作的集大成者。通过对这部文集的解读和分析,我们可以对布罗茨基散文的内容和形式、风格和特色有更深的认识。诗歌和散文之间早有"散文诗"和"韵律散文"等交叉体裁,而《悲伤与理智》一书的文体更可定义为"诗散文"。布罗茨基曾言茨维塔耶娃的散文"是她的诗歌以另一种方式的继续",有论者也认为布罗茨基的散文同样是他的诗歌之"继续"。事实上,在布罗茨基的创作中,诗和散文这两大体裁相互影响,相互交融,二者间并无分明的主次地位或清晰的从属关系。以《悲伤与理智》一书为代表的布罗茨基散文创作所体现出的鲜明个性,所赢得的巨大成功,表明布罗茨基的散文不仅是其诗歌的"继续",更是一种"发展",甚至已构成一种有其独特风格和自在意义的"存在"。     

中国韩国学研究的填白——评《独立与依附:李承晚之外交独立思想》

<正>提到韩国的外交,就不得不提到李承晚这个人物。作为韩国近代史上最为著名和重要的人物之一,他是李氏朝鲜没落旁系王族后裔,参与、领导了韩国独立运动,是大韩民国临时政府大统领,也是大韩民国第一任总统。更为重要的是,他的外交思想及实践,深刻影响了韩国建国后对美、对日关系的基调,成为韩国现代外交政策的缘起。这样重要的人物在中国无人问津不得不说是中国韩国学研究的缺憾。社会科学文献出版社2014年12月出版的朱芹博士所著《独立与依附:李承晚之外交独立思想》(以下简称《独立与依附》)一书填补了这个空白。首先,作者以依附论为理论主线,运用历史分析法,详细阐述了李承晚外交独立思想的三个最

The 1967 Arab–Israeli war: Soviet policy by other means?

This paper considers two aspects of historiography about the 1967 Arab–Israeli war – American and Soviet foreign policy in the region – to better appreciate the Soviet role in the outbreak of hostilities, as well as how the war concretized the USA–Israel ‘special relationship’ and weakened American–Arab relations. Relying especially on research from the Lyndon Johnson Presidential Library and Foreign Relations of the United States (FRUS), this paper argues that Soviet officials had little interest in pursuing measures to prevent war during the prewar crisis because the situation promised to undermine American interests in the region.

The All-Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries and French Intellectuals, 1925–29

The 1920s and 1930s were years of active personal support for the USSR by a number of eminent French intellectuals who assisted in the creation of an image of the USSR in French public opinion. This was largely based on their perceptions of the social, political and cultural achievements in Soviet society. Analysis of the archival, and mainly unpublished, documents of VOKS (the All-Union Society for Cultural Relations with Foreign Countries) illustrate the true nature of an organisation that claimed to have been created in order to promote international cultural relations. The internal correspondence and reports reveal the mechanisms used by VOKS from its inception in order to create, foster, and manipulate relations with numerous members of the French intelligentsia. Also revealed in this paper is the leading role played by VOKS in the creation of the USSR-France "cultural" friendship societies, its policies concerning the selection and treatment of French visitors, and other features of political propaganda that have been commonly considered to belong to the period of the 1930s.     

Restructuring the Mechanism of Foreign Economic Relations in the USSR

An up-to-date paper by the Deputy Chairman of the State Commission on Foreign Economic Relations, USSR Council of Ministers, details recent economic reforms in the foreign trade sector of the USSR. Particular emphasis is placed on direct business relations between Soviet enterprises and their foreign counterparts, and on joint ventures with CMEA partners as well as firms in Western and developing countries. Anticipated changes in the role exports and imports are to play in the Soviet economy are also discussed. Journal of Economic Literature, Classification Numbers: 052, 124, 420.     

Russia’s image of China and Russian-Chinese relations

Views of China in today's Russia are characterized by great diversity. There are those who stand for strengthening ties with China to counterbalance the West; those who prefer Russia balancing between various power centers; and those who fear China as a growing geopolitical rival with a potential of expanding at the expense of Russian territory. Russia's government for the foreseeable future can be expected to advocate closer ties with China. However, the real question now is not whether a future Russian leadership will advocate a more hostile or more friendly course toward China, but if it will be able to support its wishes (whatever they may be) with the real resources necessary to pursue any consistent policy. Alexander Lukin received his first degree from the Moscow State Institute of Foreign Relations and a doctorate from Oxford University. He worked at the Soviet Foreign Ministry, Soviet Embassy to the PRC, and the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Soviet Academy of Sciences. From 1990 to 1993 he was an elected deputy of the Moscow City Soviet (Council), where he chaired the Sub-Committee for Inter-Regional Relations. He is the author of Russian Democrats: A Study in Political Culture (to be published by Oxford University Press in 1999) and numerous articles on Russian and Chinese politics and Russian-Chinese relations which have been published in Russia, the PRC, the U.S., the UK, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. In 1997/1998 he was a visiting research fellow at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs at Harvard University. He is currently a research fellow at the Center for International Studies of the Moscow Institute of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Foreign Ministry (MGIMO-University) and an Associate in Research at the Fairbank Center for East Asian Research at Harvard University.

论中国援外不附加政治条件原则的理论基础及现实意义

不附加政治条件原则的雏形是中国援外八项原则中的不附加任何条件原则。伴随中国改革开放和援外体制改革,期间曾表述为不附加任何政治条件。只字之差,反映了中国援外政策的变与不变之道。国家主权平等原则、不干涉原则以及经济发展的内在性要求,是不附加政治条件原则的理论基础。西方国家之所以歪曲和批评这一原则,归根结底还是出于对中国影响力上升的猜忌和遏制。着眼长远,中国援外的国际化道路是一个必然趋势,但是在变与不变之间,不附加政治条件原则仍将具有长久的生命力。
