1949年以来金门在两岸关系中的地位与作用

1949年以来，金门在两岸关系中的地位和作用随着两岸关系互动态势的起伏而变迁。在20世纪50年代至70年代末两岸军事对峙时期，两岸在金门及其附近海域展开了激烈的冲突和对抗，也因此型塑了金门长期以来的战地角色。随着两岸关系的缓和，金门的战地角色逐渐褪去，随之产生了金门该如何在两岸关系中定位的问题，金门地方政府和民众也开始从自身的发展和利益出发争取在两岸关系中的适当定位，但与台湾当局存在诸多矛盾和冲突。“小三通”实施以后，金门成为两岸交流交往的先行者和试验者，在两岸关系中具有独特的地位和优势，但是由于台湾当局的重重限制，“小三通”对于金门地方的发展而言其实是象征意义多于实质意义。随着两岸三通直航进程的推进，金门未来只有跟祖国大陆，尤其是福建省、厦门市建立更加密切的联系，才能实现经济的发展和繁荣。

Kinmen's Status and Influence in Cross Strait Relations since 1949

Since 1949, Kinmen＇s status and influence in Cross Strait relations changed with the situation of interaction between Taiwan and Mainland. Kinmen island and sea area, Kinmen acted as the frontiers. Along with the relaxation of Cross Strait relations, Taiwan authorities and Kinmen authorities and Kinmen people triggered some arguments on Kinmen＇s future status and influence. Since the “little three direct links”, Kinmen played important role in Cross Strait interations, but still restricted by Taiwan authorities. Along with the realization of three direct links, Kinmen＇s development and prosperity lies on the closer relations with Xiamen city, Fujian province and the whole Chinese Mainland.
