For many years Beijing has sought to isolate Taiwan from the world community, threatening to sever relations with any country
that tries to establish or strengthen relations with Taiwan. As a result, economic diplomacy has become a tool in conducting
Taiwan’s international affairs. Political and economic considerations are thus intermingled in Taiwan’s pursuit of its foreign
economic policy. This paper does not intend to go into a traditional debate on the conflict between the state (politics) and
the market (economics) in conducting a country’s foreign economic relations. Rather, it attempts to coordinate the merits
of both state and market and assumes that an understanding of their interaction is useful in examining Taiwan’s foreign economic
relations in the post-Deng period. The empirical study of this paper will focus on mainland China and the Southeast Asian
countries. Southeast Asia is a region where no country maintains diplomatic relations with Taiwan. It is difficult indeed
for Taiwan to develop official political ties with Southeast Asian countries because of their geographical proximity to mainland
China, which tends to make them subject to pressure from Beijing. Thus, whenever Taipei conducts its economic communications
(such as in foreign trade, foreign direct investment and foreign economic assistance) with mainland China and those Southeast
Asian countries, political and economic factors are always taken into account by decision-makers. 相似文献

This paper compares the determination of foreign direct investment and World Bank loans in China, with a focus on the role
of its government. The statistical analysis reveals that World Bank loans responded sensitively to the major regional policy
changes since the mid-1990s, but foreign direct investment did not. These findings pose an analytic challenge to the “strong”
version of the state-centered approaches to the politics of economic development represented by the developmental state literature.
However, they lend support for a “weak” version of the state-centered approaches developed by American political scientists
Stephen Krasner and Theda Skocpol.

This paper explores how and why China has been perceived as an economic threat in Taiwan through an examination of Taipei’s
post-Cold War economic policy with respect to the mainland. While Taipei’s restriction on trade and investment across the
Taiwan Strait until mid-2008 was widely considered a failure by both opponents and supporters of closer cross-Strait economic
ties, this analysis points to an overlooked function of Taiwan’s economic policy that was not just about tackling the problems
of the security externalities or promoting the island’s economic development. What appeared to be an ineffective policy can
be understood as a successful boundary-drawing practice that discursively constituted a vulnerable Taiwan under Chinese economic
threat, hence conducive to the (re)production of Taiwanese national identity. 相似文献

Chinese outward foreign direct investment (COFDI) has captured the imagination of international business academics, journalists,
and analysts of Chinese foreign economic policy. While these students of COFDI have added greatly to our knowledge, they have
not adequately considered the politico-economy of COFDI. Specifically, they have not sufficiently evaluated the degree to
which COFDI is driven by political versus economic considerations, the extent to which political considerations influence
the overseas operations of Chinese multinational corporations (MNCs), or the political ramifications of COFDI for host countries,
international institutions, or China’s interactions with third parties. Reviewing the Western literature, this article provides
useful background information about COFDI, distills two general schools of thought about the politico-economy of COFDI—i.e.,
the “Beijing as Puppeteer” camp and the “Business of Business is Business” camp, and highlights a number of shortcomings with
each. As well, it suggests a number of ways in which the extant literature can move forward and makes clear the importance
of tracking the development of Chinese MNCs. 相似文献

Post-Mao’s economic reforms have led many China analysts to observe that post-Mao China has been moving toward capitalism
or “capitalist takeover” has occurred in post-Mao China. This observation has a significant implication both for the US foreign
economic policy and in the study of regime change in post-Mao China. The purpose of this article is to revisit and reassess
the economic transformation in post-Mao China to obtain a holistic understanding of the central reality in post-Mao China
on the one side, while on the other to rebut the assertion of “capitalist takeover” in post-Mao China. Through a systematic
survey of party documents, policy statements, leaders’ speeches, official newspapers and magazines, general academic studies
on the post-Mao reform in English and in Chinese, this article examines the post-Mao economic transformation along the three
key empirical dimensions in terms of systemic change: the existence of capitalist elements, the ownership structure, and the
role of the market in the Chinese economy. The findings based on fresh empirical evidence suggest that China has not made
any significant change from communism toward capitalism in any of those fields despite the considerable change made in the
past 20 years.

The CCP government has adopted a very pragmatic strategy of “performance legitimacy” since China began its reform. It means
that the government relies on accomplishing concrete goals such as economic growth, social stability, strengthening national
power, and “good governance” (governing competence and accountability) to retain its legitimacy. While it is able to attain
considerable domestic support by implementing this strategy, it has no particular interest in pursuing democratization. This
chapter tries to make sense of the main reasons why it has adopted this strategy and to evaluate the political and social
outcome of its policies. The chapter intends to discover if China’s adaptation strategy is a “path dependent” decision, and
if it will function as a potential catalyst for significant political change in the future. The chapter also explores what
the Chinese government has achieved through its adaptation strategy and what and why it has been unwilling or unable to do
to obtain an “original justification” of power. Zhu skillfully travels back and forth between the terrains of theory and practice
to make better sense of legitimacy and governance in China’s experiences. 相似文献

This study attempts to answer a new but important question in China’s foreign policy— how Beijing has wielded its soft power
to construct its ideal of international order in the age of China’s rise. Before empirical analyses, this study tries to set
up a conceptual framework on the relations between the idea of “harmonious world” and China’s soft power wielding in its rising
process. Within this framework, this study examines a rising China’s foreign policies towards three targeted regions in the
global south—Africa, East Asia, and Latin America. On the one hand, due to Beijing’s carefully-designed and soft power-based
foreign policies, the global south has become an increasingly harmonious environment for Beijing to cultivate a favorable
national image, exert its political influence on regional affairs, benefit its own domestic economic developments, etc. On
the other hand, some problems such as the so-called “China’s New Colonialism” and the increased vigilance from the other powers
have already began to challenge Beijing’s harmony in those regions.

This essay examines the nature of China’s leadership transition, contending perspectives on Chinese foreign policy, and new
foreign policy orientation. By examining leadership transition and new policy development, this essay demonstrates change
and continuity in Chinese foreign policy. For analyzing new policy orientation, the following points require special attention.
First, the fundamental goal of Chinese foreign policy is to create a peaceful environment for socioeconomic development. Second,
“do not seek enemy” has become an essential part of China’s foreign policy. Third, pragmatism and professionalism are becoming
key features of Beijing’s diplomacy. Finally, China’s new leaders are facing enormous domestic and international challenges.
They must learn to balance domestic and international concerns in order to achieve peace and development.

This paper is a preliminary study of Chinese considerations of China’s “economic security”, a notion that gained currency in China-based Chinese scholars’ research on China’s international relations in the 1990s. Among other things, such considerations reflect Chinese scholars’ acceptance of Western Realist/Nationalist convictions about the international political economy. The paper also finds that Chinese concerns about what the international political-economic environment holds for China’s approach to national greatness through economic growth by continuing to interact with the rest of the world, while not unfounded, are more ideology-driven than fact-based. This tendency contrasts sharply with Japanese notions of “economic security,” which have greatly influenced industrial restructuring in Japan and Japan’s international economic/security policies Japan since the term came into being in the 1970s. 相似文献

A growing literature has sought to address the question of Chinese nationalism, and particularly whether or not its rise over
the last decade could make China more prone to international conflict. Yet these discussions have often not been well grounded
in either theories of nationalism or international relations (IR) theory. This paper will seek to fill this gap by using a
constructivist approach to examine how nationalism is constituted by the interaction of states. By doing so, it will be argued
that Chinese nationalism can best be understood as a reactive response to international events rather than domestic political
manipulation.

This article challenges key aspects of theories on norms evolution, transnational advocacy, and social movements. It demonstrates
that the “emergence” phase of the “norms life cycle” model (Finnemore and Sikkink 1998) is more internally contested than
currently interpreted. It develops two alternatives to the “boomerang” model of transnational advocacy (Keck and Sikkink 1998).
It highlights and explains differences—rather than similarities—in the framing strategies of actors involved in globalized
protests. It explores the influence of several key “microsociological factors” (Giugni 2002) on the evolution of those stragegies.
Empirically the article focuses on the World Trade Organization's Third Ministerial meeting at Seattle in 1999. It analyzes
why and how social movement actors framed different interpretations of the human rights at stake in the context of international
trade. Framing innovations may have had short-term strategic value at Seattle, but did not lead to a unified understanding
of human rights, either among activists themselves or among the government and corporate actors they sought to influence through
protest. 相似文献

Since the election in 1997 of a New Labour Government in the United Kingdom, a growing number of analyses have provided insights
into, and critiques of, what has been termed the “social investment state”. To date, these analyses have interrogated particular
developments and distinct issues in a number of key social welfare policy-related sectors, including education, citizenship,
the family, and poverty/employment. Notable by its absence, however, is the contribution that policies for sport and physical
activity are now playing in the realisation of New Labour’s social investment strategies. This article therefore interrogates
and registers the growing salience of sport policy interventions for the construction of a social investment state within
the broader political context of governing under “advanced liberal” rationalities. The “active citizen”, and children and
young people, in particular, are valorised and appear centre-stage as the focus for these interventions. This child-centred
focus is problematised, as is the argument that, under prevailing political rationalities of advanced liberalism, government
“steers” rather than “rows” and “enables” rather than “commands”. Under these conditions, while children are deemed deserving
of investment, there may be other groups who are deemed less deserving, for example, older people who, unlike children and
young people have little currency in a future-oriented world.

This paper explores Taiwan’s power reconfiguration resulted from the 2000 presidential election and its implication for the
perplexed cross-Strait Strait relations. It looks back at Taiwan’s party transformations on the part of the Kuomintang (KMT)
and the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) over the past decade, discusses several important factors directly related to the
victory of the DPP, and analyzes Taipei’s post-election political arrangements and conciliatory gestures toward Beijing. The
paper concludes that given the political disparity between mainland China and Taiwan as well as the transitory nature of Taipei’s
new government, Beijing will continue its “wait and see” policy toward Taipei, hence the chance for political dialogue between
the two sides is slim in the foreseeable future.

This paper reexamines American policy toward China, Taiwan, and their ambivalent bilateral relationship, focusing on the period
since Washington’s shift from strong (but not unconditional) support of Nationalist China to the role of balancer in the early
1970s, particularly on the most recent period under George W. Bush. We analyze the relationship from a strategic triangular
perspective. The China-Taiwan-US relationship is triangular in the sense that each actor’s relations with the other two depend
on its relations with the third. It is strategic in its focus on security. The United States has been the consistent “pivot”
of this triangle, having better relations with both “wings” than they have with each other. Washington has retained this structurally
advantageous position partly because of its disproportionate strategic weight, and partly because of the inherent difficulties
Taipei and Beijing have had forging a cooperative bilateral relationship. This structure has been quite stable since the Cold
War, as Washington has periodically shifted its balance from one wing to the other without altering the triangle’s basic configuration.
Yet so long as the configuration is maintained, the basic problem on which the triangle is based — the contested independence
of Taiwan — cannot be resolved. This creates a sense of national identity frustration that will continue to generate attempts
at resolution, either by Taiwan’s declaration of independence or China’s forced reunification (or both).

China’s Harmonious World: Beyond Cultural Interpretations 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A culture “specter” is haunting the ongoing discourse regarding China’s declared policy of “peaceful rise” for a “harmonious
world.” While some Western scholars “cherry-pick” “evidence” of China’s aggressiveness from Confucius legacies, the same cultural
heritage is heavily tapped by many Chinese scholars to interpret the current policy of striving for internal and external
harmony. Both seem to ignore, though to different degrees, the historically specific political environment, within which the
cultural elements function and interact with other socio-political variables. China’s current pursuit of harmony is possible
and desirable only at a time when China is able to achieve sustained sociopolitical stability (30 years) in the past 160 years
and after its protracted encounter and experiment with Western liberalism, Marxism and capitalism. Although it has not explicitly
rejected any of these Western ideologies, China has tested the limits of all of them—hence China’s search for its own identity
and policy alternatives at the onset of the new millennium. It is toward a more historical and holistic explanation that this
paper constructs the political space and historical trajectory of China’s search for modernity and for itself in the past
two centuries and into the future.

China is evolving—it is becoming modern and international—but its trajectory will never intersect with the West’s. Fortunes
have waxed and waned over thousands of years, but Chinese civilization has remained apart. Enduring fundamentals—morality
rooted in stability, anti-individualism and a micro-analytic, balance-obsessed worldview—both fuel contemporary growth and
preclude China’s ascendance as a superpower capable of projecting values abroad. A unifying “Confucian Conflict” between trenchant
ambition and diffused anxiety also explains the actions and attitudes of ordinary Chinese people. This “street level” article
articulates an “insecure or safe” continuum of twelve quintessentially behavioral characteristics that are observed in all
realms of contemporary life including diplomacy, business, consumer behavior and social structure. They are: Ritualistic Observation,
Robotic Depersonalization, Hierarchical Regimentation, Anxious Self-protection, Trust Facilitation, Pragmatic Elasticity,
Incremental Progression, Released Repression, Confidence Projection, Epic Ambition, Scaled Mobilization and Joyful Celebration. 相似文献

In the Chinese political system, according to the constitution, the people’s congresses at the primary level are the only
institution which the voters can directly elect. However, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) tightly controls the “direct elections”
and takes every measure in the elections to prevent grassroots power from entering even the primary-level people’s congresses.
In recent years, grassroots power has kept struggling for its legal rights in the “direct elections” held in a few localities.
The conflicts between the grassroots power and the authoritarian party in the “direct elections” have become an interesting
political phenomenon, a subject deserves close observation and research. This paper studies the background of the independent
candidates, their motivations and behaviour in elections. The paper also examines the party’s control in the elections and
thus exposes the true nature of China’s people’s congress “direct” elections. The paper argues that independent candidates
can have little impacts on China’s political structure at the current stage because of the party’s tight control, but their
political participation has the most democratic value, compared with the “reforms” instigated and carried out by the CCP. 相似文献

The article examines whether there is reciprocity between the legitimating effects of China’s regime at home and abroad and
how global governance and legitimacy interact in the case of China. This is done through an analysis of Chinese climate politics
and China’s engagement in international climate negotiations and governance, especially its behavior during and after the
Copenhagen Climate Summit in December 2009 and the Chinese regime’s efforts to legitimate this behavior. While China’s role
in international climate governance was disputed at the Copenhagen Summit, China contributed constructively to brokering a
deal with significant implications for a new climate governance architecture suiting China’s preferences and being aligned
with China’s core interests. China defended the procedural logic of the current global climate governance framework and managed
to contain institutional change. Based on Anthony Giddens’ proposition about “radicalism at the centre”, it is argued that
China’s national and international discourse on and actions associated with climate change and the international negotiations
about the new climate governance architecture seem to be able to reinforce each other and may well have a mutual legitimacy
augmenting effect for the ‘radicals at the centre’ of the Chinese regime, provided that they ensure consequential logic through
targeted reduction of GHG emissions and a “green transformation” of the economy. 相似文献

Trade and investment are crucial drivers of economic growth. Successful execution of trade and investment policy can elevate a developing country to a sustained growth path and make it self-reliant. Bangladesh implemented a trade liberalization policy in the 1980s, deviating much from its conservative trade policy. This article assesses the impacts of trade, investment in physical as well as human capital, and a few trade policy variables on income surge for the liberalized regime. The econometric analysis finds that export, import, and domestic investment stimulate income. The impact of foreign investment is not conducive. Public spending on education also contributes to the income surge. Among the policy variables, trade openness and currency depreciation produce a beneficial impact. Population growth retards economic growth. The baseline results hold in the estimations involving several specifications of variables and testified as robust. The article views that a comprehensive approach to trade and investment policy would ensure the comparative advantage of trade and the well-being of Bangladesh. 相似文献

Many of the debates concerning the existence of economic rights obfuscate the meaning of the possession of a right to an economic
good. In order to provide clarification, several theoretical questions must be probed. This essay explores each of these issues
in order to demonstrate that greater conceptual clarity repudiates the arguments against the existence of economic rights.
It also seeks to attenuate the vexing problem of necessary and painful tradeoffs between competing rights claims. The final
portion of this essay heuristically demonstrates how greater conceptual clarity can aid us in dealing with complex policy
issues involving competing rights claims.
