变化中的世界与中国

“9·11事件”是冷战结束后最具标志性的事件。值此“9·11”五周年之际,《现代国际关系》编辑部举办了“‘9·11’以来国际形势变化与中国外交”专题研讨会,邀请在京二十余位国际问题专家就五年来的国际形势变化、反恐形势、当前国际体系中的深层矛盾、大国关系的调整、国际格局的演变趋势、美国反恐的得与失、美国国际地位及实力的升与降、中国国际地位与国际战略等问题进行了深入分析和探讨。现将与会专家学者的主要观点辑录刊发,以期对读者把握国际战略形势及理解中国对外战略有所裨益。     

The Evolving Security Situation in Asia and the Role of China

Today I would like to share some thoughts on Asian security and the role and responsibility of China.
In people＇s minds, Asia is often seen as a dynamic economy. Yet for some people, the close economic relations among Asian countries are not matched by amicable political relations. They even believe instability and insecurity is on the rise in Asia.     

Environmental Security and Gender: Necessary Shifts in an Evolving Debate

Environmental security is a topic of study that has gained significant attention in the past few decades. Largely since the end of the Cold War, environmental security has come to represent a way for scholars and policy makers to link the concepts of traditional security scholarship to the environment. Many different conceptions of the relationship between the environment and security appear in academia. Yet despite the diversity of current work on the environment and security, there has been little systematic work done that examines the intersection between environmental security and gender. This article will address the necessity of including gender into the approaches on the environment and security. The environmental security debate exhibits gendered understandings of both security and the environment. These gendered assumptions and understandings benefit particular people but are often detrimental to others. Examining environmental security through a gender lens gives insight into the gendered nature of global environmental politics and redefines the concept in ways that are more useful, both empirically and analytically. The various environmental security perspectives have important, unexplored gender dimensions that must be uncovered so that the security of humans and the environment can be better protected.     

China and the Changing World

A time comparison is necessary for analyzing the changes that have taken place in international relations. The September 11 attacks took place in 2001, hence the need for a comparison of the situation before and after the events. Here we mean the time starting from the end of the Cold War to the present. I would like to make a comparison of the differences in the international situation in 1992-2000 and thereafter. First, I will make some comments about the changes in the features of the state players, international structure, international rules and major contradictions in the world. I will then attempt to analyze Chinese foreign policy.     

国际格局中日显重要的中国因素

一、中国因素在国际事务中的分量加重"中国的崛起已通过引入一种新的发展和强大的物理过程重塑国际秩序。"这是《北京共识》(TheBeijingConsensus)作者乔叙亚·库珀·拉莫在序言里的一句话。他还认为,"当前在中国发生的事情不仅是适于中国的一个模式,而且已经开始重新绘改国际发展、经济、社会并延及到政治的全幅景图。"对中国发展将影响世界的看法,当然不是始于拉莫。过去十年间欧盟发表了五个对华政策文件,1995年7月5日发表的第一份对华战略文件《中国一欧洲关系长期政策》中,中欧经济利益占据主导地位。1998年3月25日发表的第二份对华战略     

Build an International Exchange Platform for Even Better Understanding between China and the World

At the beginning of the 1980s, China entered a new historical era of reform and opening up and socialist modernization drive. It became important and urgent for China to exchange and communicate with the international community. To meet the demand of     

世界与中国、中国与世界:过去30年,未来30年

2008北京奥运的完美落幕进一步突出了中国改革开放以来的发展成就,标志着中国的国力、国势、国运进入新的上升轨道,中国与世界的关系再度成为国际热点话题。中国的发展、崛起将引起国际格局、国际体系发生什么样的变化?在变化中的世界,尤其是在中国发展本身就构成国际变局重要组成部分、国际上"中国威胁论"及"中国责任论"等此起彼伏的情况下,中国又面临着什么样的新任务、需要确立怎样的国家大战略、做出何种新的战略选择?要不要居安思危,继续坚持韬光养晦?对这些问题,不仅精英层在严肃思考,普通民众也极为关切。鉴此,《现代国际关系》杂志社2008年8月31日以"‘奥运后时代’中国与世界的关系"为题举办研讨会,邀请京津两地20多位相关领域专家、学者就上述问题展开深入讨论。现将会议主要观点辑录如下,以飨读者。     

China vs. the Third World

Since the end of the Cold War, some new features have been revealed in the Third World, which, referring to developing nations for decades, especially in the Cold War years, faces some problems and challenges under heavy economic and political impact. China, as a biggest member of the Third World, also faces new environments and challenges during the     

China Can Hardly Rule the World

Many assert that China will become a great power,if not a superpower,in the foreseeable future.Such sensational claims result from either ignorance or ulterior motives.The author seeks to refute this a...     

The Changing World Order and China

Over the past three or four years, several prominent commentators have made some astonishing claims, and with the help of the media, many people now believe that the global order has dramatically changed because of China. One famous U.S. scholar of international politics started the idea of G2, saying that only the U.S. and     

China and the World： Harmony in Economic Growth

China's rise has focused international attention in recent years and China Studies now tops the agenda of academia and decision-making circles around the world.The reasons can be traced to tremendous transformations that have occurred in China since it launched reforms and opening-up policies. These changes have given rise to adjustments in the global economy and ensuing shifts in the North-South power balance. In fact, China has increasingly evolved into a driving force for the global economy,providing it with opportunities for expansion and providing it with a more spacious, relaxed environment. Such a win-win situation benefits sustainable global growth.Therefore, a correct grasp of the channels for this interaction and recognition of the harmony in growth between China and the world is crucial, both for China's further integration into the world, and the world's better understanding of this rising Asian power.     

World Military Situation and Challenges Facing China

Although peace was still the main theme last year, various kinds of uncertainties piled up quickly. Many of the traditional security issues were still there, while new threats like terrorism made things look even worse. Some major powers were busy to rethink their military strategies in the new century. Japan and Germany, the two "defeated countries" of World War Two, sent their troops abroad for the first     

中国、非洲与世界工厂

不论中国是不是真正意义上的世界工厂,资源短缺、劳动力成本上升、环境承载能力超限等问题已使其越来越难以维系这一地位。中国要实现经济发展方式的转变,必须将所谓的世界工厂外移,而资源丰富的非洲大陆是最佳目的地,成为新的世界工厂也是非洲彻底改变单一经济结构、真正摆脱贫穷落后状况的最有效途径。整体规划是非洲世界工厂战略成功的关键,它将使非洲经济单一性劣势转化为专业性优势,最终成为非洲门类齐全的工业体系的支柱。中国和非洲在世界工厂角色转换进程中具有更广阔的合作空间,非洲取代中国成为新的世界工厂也将有助于中国解决中非经贸关系发展进程中存在的一些问题。     

China and the World Can Enjoy Co-prosperity

For the past thirty years, the world economy has been changing at an accelerating speed. The landscape of the Chinese economy has been transformed by the decision to open its door to the world, and also by its ongoing internal reforms. These changes, while embodying great achievements over the past thirty years, also reflect the problems accumulated in the process. The Chinese economy has become increasingly internationalized and globalized, and the world economy has also been molded by China. China will provide opportunities while posing challenges to the world and vice versa. The economic fates of China and the world are inextricably interwoven. A China committed to peaceful development and mutual benefits will bring more opportunities than challenges to the world.     

Evolving norms of protection: China,Libya and the problem of intervention in armed conflict

This article examines the influence of civilian protection norms on China’s response to the 2011 crisis in Libya. It argues that Responsibility to Protect—an emerging norm commonly associated with the Libyan case—did not play a major role in China’s abstention on Resolution 1973 (2011) authorizing international intervention in Libya. For China, Responsibility to Protect is merely a concept and could not serve as the basis for intervention. Instead, Protection of Civilians in Armed Conflict, as a normative foundation for civilian protection endorsed by China, offers a more appropriate lens for understanding China’s vote. Protection of Civilians, however, does not accommodate China’s unprecedented evacuation of Chinese nationals from Libya. This operation proceeded from a third logic of Protection of Nationals Abroad, which poses dilemmas for China’s strict adherence to the principles of sovereignty and non-interference and brings to bear domestic interests and notions of protection.     

国际区域经济一体化进程与中国

21世纪以来,由于多边贸易谈判屡次受挫,世界各国开始热衷于推进区域经济一体化进程,积极开展区域贸易协定谈判。目前,全球及各主要地区的区域贸易协定在合作模式、运行机制以及运作领域等方面呈现出许多新特征。中国已于2001年起努力寻求与贸易伙伴缔结区域贸易协定。研究区域经济一体化进程及其特点,将有利于深化我国的区域经济一体化战略,应对新的国际区域经济合作进程。     

两个体系的世界与中国外交

今天的世界,是两类社会,即国际社会与全球社会并存的世界;是两个体系,即主权国家体系与全球体系并存的世界;是两种格局,即国际格局与全球格局并存的世界.其核心是国际体系与全球体系两个体系并存.这种两个体系并存局面使当今世界形势显得纷繁复杂,因而,中国面临的挑战和机遇是历史上任何新兴大国崛起从未遇到过的.我们必须研究两个体系各自的特点、发展趋势及其互动关系,研究它们为世界提供的现实基础,分析我国面临的挑战和机遇来自何方,以便避害趋利,寻求我国外交的着力点,在统筹国内与国际两个大局的同时,统筹国际体系与全球体系两个大局,显示更高的外交智慧和艺术.     

中国与世界关系范式的变化

2008北京奥运的完美落幕进一步突出了中国改革开放以来的发展成就,标志着中国的国力、国势、国运进入新的上升轨道,中国与世界的关系再度成为国际热点话题。中国的发展、崛起将引起国际格局、国际体系发生什么样的变化?在变化中的世界,尤其是在中国发展本身就构成国际变局重要组成部分、国际上"中国威胁论"及"中国责任论"等此起彼伏的情况下,中国又面临着什么样的新任务、需要确立怎样的国家大战略、做出何种新的战略选择?要不要居安思危,继续坚持韬光养晦?对这些问题,不仅精英层在严肃思考,普通民众也极为关切。鉴此,《现代国际关系》杂志社2008年8月31日以"‘奥运后时代’中国与世界的关系"为题举办研讨会,邀请京津两地20多位相关领域专家、学者就上述问题展开深入讨论。现将会议主要观点辑录如下,以飨读者。     

世界粮食危机与中国粮食安全

世界粮食危机预示着高粮价时代的到来,各国开始重新审视自己的粮食安全。全球人口膨胀和消费需求不断增加打破了供需之间的平衡,而美国推行的生物燃料政策和美元霸权进一步加剧了这种不平衡。因此,美国要为世界粮食危机的加剧负主要责任,但美国同时也是世界粮食危机的最大受益者,国际粮价的高涨体现了美国粮食武器的威力。面对形势严重的世界粮食危机,中国应该保证自给自足,高度重视粮食安全,力保粮食主权,实现经济和社会的可持续发展。
