东南亚移民危机与移民治理:从“安全化”到“区域化”

继欧洲难民潮和北美非法移民引发国际社会广泛关注后,东南亚也爆发了严重的移民危机。东南亚国家普遍采取的将移民视为威胁的"安全化"行动不仅无助于移民危机的消解,反而加速了危机的升级,成为对地区稳定和东盟共同体建设的重大挑战。认识到移民政策"安全化"所带来的严重后果,东南亚各国开始寻求加快推进移民的区域治理,由此产生了地区国家"安全化"行动与"区域化"进程两者并存的发展态势。然而,在区域化进程中,东南亚诸国面临治理维度发展失衡,政策行动上存在共识缺乏和能力制约等挑战。为此,东盟需要突破当前东南亚地区国家的"安全化"反应模式,实现均衡治理和统一行动。作为东盟的重要邻国,中国应积极研究对策,加强多边合作与协调,维护地区稳定与国家安全。     

公共外交视阈下的东南亚华人基督教社团CSSCI

在全球化与区域化深度交织的时代,海外侨民及宗教信徒正成为一国公共外交体系中颇具特色的跨国社会资本,日益崛起的东南亚华人基督教为我们研究海外华人社会、地区新兴宗教、中国—东盟公共外交提供了一个典型案例。相对于本土宗教,基督教在东南亚华人族群中的传播尤为迅速,已成为影响力与日俱增的跨民族宗教和跨文化宗教代表。基督教社团不仅促进了华人内部的信仰传播和族群认同,而且推进了与海外基督教的跨国互动及社会凝聚,它在当前中国—东盟公共外交多维网络中扮演着不可或缺的角色,但其未来参与公共外交仍将受到地区信仰格局、政治社会环境、西方宗教势力等一系列因素的制约。     

多重安全视角下的东南亚核问题

东南亚核问题在不同时期有不同的表现,冷战时期主要带有传统安全的色彩,冷战后则呈现为非传统安全与传统安全的交织.尤其是近年来一些东南亚国家着手开发核电,该地区的核问题更为错综复杂.从多重安全的视角来看,核问题将对东盟的区域治理能力构成一定的挑战.

东南亚区域安全治理研究:理论探讨与案例分析

冷战结束以后,东南亚地区既是国际安全研究的热点,也是区域研究的重要个案,"东盟方式"受到学界关注。"后殖民主义"和冷战研究的相关理论不足以解释东南亚的安全治理。鉴于此,文章把安全治理纳入区域治理研究的视野中,提出区域治理的概念和理论,结合区域建制、区域大国和区域连结之间的变量关系,来分析区域协调和区域管理机制在东南亚的运作。柬越战争和东帝汶危机是东南亚安全治理中的重要事件,文章通过这两个案例分析了东南亚区域安全结构的演化并验证了相关理论,对影响东南亚区域安全治理的变量提供了有现实意义的学理分析。文章认为,东南亚区域安全治理的成功既是大国协调的结果,也是东盟建制化和安全化的结果,区域连结是东南亚区域安全治理的重要指标和评估依据。     

东南亚国家发展5G技术的现状与前景

东南亚各国高度重视5G技术对本国经济发展的重要作用,着力推动5G技术在本国落地.新冠疫情虽然让部分国家推进5G速度有所放缓,但各国发展5G技术的意愿更加坚定.东南亚发展5G技术拥有丰富的人力资源和广阔的市场,随着东南亚数字经济的迅猛发展,诸多大型信息技术公司看好东南亚市场前景,纷纷加大对东南亚的投入.然而,美国执意将5G问题政治化,在东南亚封锁、打压以华为公司为代表的中国企业,扭曲生产要素配置,将经济、技术问题意识形态化,强迫东南亚国家减少采购中国企业的5G设备.同时,东盟缺乏在5G领域制定规则和制度的政治意愿,不够重视发展数字经济的基础设施,未能通过务实合作抢抓5G规则的制定权,逐步丧失引领区域5G合作的主动权.在此背景下,东南亚各国在5G设备选用问题上,采取了不同策略.一些国家继续使用中国公司设备,个别国家转而使用非中国企业设备,部分国家试图淡化地缘政治竞争色彩.未来,东南亚国家会继续游走在中美之间,从传统的"两边不得罪"的政策取向出发制定5G政策.东南亚国家将加强东盟内部在5G问题上的协作,创制数字时代发展新概念,制定相关规则和制度,在数字基础设施领域引领区域发展.东盟还将以5G合作为契机,加强与中国在各个领域的合作,助推中国—东盟合作提质升级.     

区域治理视域下的东盟环境问题

环境问题是区域治理的重要组成部分.20世纪80年代以来,环境问题已成为影响东盟社会经济可持续发展的重要因素之一,平衡经济增长与环境的可持续性成为东盟必须认真考虑解决的问题.为应对日益恶化的环境问题,东盟建立了不少合作机制,签署了若干宣言、倡议和协定,并积极与域外国家和环境组织开展合作,然而治理成效还是有限.从东盟存在的环境问题、合作机制和面临的挑战来看,制约东盟环境治理成效的因素,既有东盟层面的,也有东盟成员国层面的.东盟的环境治理尚未摆脱以国家为核心的传统治理模式,区域间缺乏有效的协调与合作,导致治理成效不佳.其中,"东盟方式"是最大的障碍,如何突破"不干涉成员国内政"这一原则的限制,将是东盟环境合作能否取得成效的关键.东盟治理能力的缺陷和缺乏有效的危机应急管理机制、区域意识淡薄、区域合作治理意志与决心不强、集体行动迟缓,说明东盟仍只是一个松散的国家集团.因此,如何协调政治—安全、经济、社会一文化三大支柱之间的关系,实现经济与环境的可持续发展,东盟还有很长的路要走.     

东南亚国家的南海问题研究:现状与走向

从2009年南海问题再次升温以来,在国际学术界南海问题研究中,东南亚学者开始扮演着越来越重要的角色。通过相关的文献分析和解读可以看到,东南亚学者的南海问题研究主要侧重于南海地区制度建设、南海问题国际法解读、东盟在南海问题中的角色以及南海问题新的和平倡议四个方面,而且研究内容开始向南海问题的国内影响因素、危机管理机制的建立等方向发展。深入全面把握东南亚国家南海研究的动向有助于我们知己知彼,吸收借鉴,利用更有针对性的研究加强南海问题公共外交,提高在这方面的国际话语权。     

东南亚苗族的生产方式

位于我国西南边疆的云南和广西两省(区),与东南亚的越南、老挝、泰国,缅甸等国接壤或毗邻,同时又是少数民族聚居的地区。在3O多个少数民族中,有半数以上跨中国和接界东南亚国家而居,我们可以称其为跨境民族。在建设具有中国民族特色的社会主义现代化的今天,从跨境民族的角度探讨中国西南边疆少数民族的发展战略,已成为我国民族学研究的重要课题之一.本文拟就东南亚苗族的生产方式等有关问题略抒管见,仅供研究中国西南地区少数民族经济发展对策时参考.     

东南亚问题的重要教学参考书--《东盟读本》与《第二东盟读本》之介评

本文首先简要介绍了《东盟读本》与《第二东盟读本》的基本内容,接着对其出版背景、收录文献的内容与特色等进行比较与分析,最后推介这两本文集应当成为东盟和东南亚问题教学与研究的重要参考书。     

Locating Kaliningrad And KÖNigsberg In Russian And German Collective Identity Discourses And Political Symbolism In The 750Th Anniversary Celebrations Of 2005

This article begins by briefly exploring issues of conflict and control in relation to the 750th anniversary of the city of Kaliningrad/Königsberg. An analysis of the tensions between Russian regional (Kaliningrad) and national (federal) identity discourses on the political symbolism of the 750th anniversary commemoration is offered, using Russian media reports and interviews conducted in Kaliningrad. German narratives on the political symbolism of the anniversary events and their implications for German national identity discourses are investigated via interviews conducted in Kaliningrad and Germany, German media reports, books, films and a theater production about Königsberg. Particular attention is given to the impact of the German expellee organizations on framing the discourse about Königsberg in contemporary Germany. The article will conclude by comparing and contrasting the various discourses and interpretations of the anniversary in the Kaliningrad region, Russia and Germany.     

CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES AND THE TREATMENT OF PAKISTAN’S RELIGIOUS MINORITIES

Although Pakistan was created as a homeland for South Asia's Muslims, religious freedom was one of its founding principles. Seventy years later, Pakistan is better known for religious extremism and the persecution of Muslim and non-Muslim religious minorities. Pakistan's blasphemy law is a state-sanctioned tool of religious oppression used to target members of minority faith communities whether Ahmadiya, Christian, Hindu, or Shiite, as well as Sunnis who criticize the law. This paper discusses the blasphemy law and other laws that have led to the state of religious oppression in Pakistan.     

'Adorned with the Mix of Faith and Profanity that Intoxicates the People': The Festival of the Senhor do Bonfim in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, 1930–19541

This essay looks at a formative period in the history of the festival of the Senhor do Bonfim, one of Salvador's most important religious festivals. The essay focuses on the public ritual washing of the Church of Bonfim and the tensions between the Catholic Church, who periodically banned the washing from the larger festival, and a variety of historical actors including politicians, journalists, authors and working-class Salvadorans whose efforts eventually contributed to the lifting of the prohibition once and for all in 1953. The author suggests that the defence of the washing both reflected and contributed to a larger hegemonic process taking place in Salvador after 1930, as actors within Salvador's dominant class accepted and even praised Afro-Bahian cultural practices, including them as integral parts of a larger Bahian identity.     

The FBI's Role in Expelling Germans from Ecuador During the 1940s

The expulsion from Latin America of immigrants from axis countries and their descendants is an important but little‐studied episode of the Second World War. The role of the US, and in particular that of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), in their removal has largely disappeared from historical memory. This article examines how the FBI advanced US commercial interests, and in the process harmed vulnerable people who were subject to these expulsions.     

INDIA’S DEMONETISATION: MODI’S ‘NUDGE’ TO CHANGE ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR

This article offers an account of the impact of Indian PM Narendra Modi’s decision in November 2016 to withdraw suddenly all Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes from circulation in India with the avowed intent of combatting fraud, tax avoidance and other economic problems. The article assesses the impact from the demonetisation in November to the March 2017 Indian regional elections, where wide-scale victories for Modi’s political party, the BJP, appear to have vindicated his reforms. The article provides an analysis of the political background of the period, as well as looking at the economic and societal impact of the changes, including the way in which the behaviour of Indian citizens has been ‘nudged’ with particular regard to use of banking, transactions, social effects, and payment of tax.     

DROUGHT: THE ACHILLES HEEL OF THE ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF IRAN

Approximately 97% of the country is experiencing drought conditions. Due to gross water mismanagement and its damaging impact on the country, Iran faces the worst situation in water resources of any industrialized nation. Tens of thousands of villages have been deserted and most of the major urban centers have passed their limits to absorb new rural migrants. Some officials predict that in less than 25 years, 50 million Iranians would be displaced from their current homes because of the pressing ecological conditions. This is happening at the time that the gap between the grassroots and the state has widened and there is increasing dissatisfaction with governance plagued by corruption, nepotism, economic mismanagement, unaccountability and a foreign policy which has produced various regional and trans-regional adversaries. This paper evaluates the pressing ecological challenges in Iran and by conceptualizing political resilience it critically evaluates whether the Islamic Republic is prepared to face the devastating ecological crisis and its socio-economic consequences.
