摘要
冷战结束以来,东亚的经济地区主义虽然取得了一些进展,但至今仍然没有发展出一个成熟稳定的区域制度框架来推动区域经济进行深度整合。该地区多重制度框架相互竞争,造成了一种"制度过剩"的特殊格局。这导致东亚地区在经济整合的过程中,缺乏有力的制度推动和有效的区域治理,具体表现为该地区至今仍难以建立有助于提高经济绩效的经济要素完全自由流动的统一经济区;难以采取集体行动,共同应对来自外部的各种经济风险和冲击。本文认为,东亚地区多重制度竞争的背后,是由于与该区域相关的主要行为体对塑造东亚经济秩序有着不同的利益偏好和战略诉求,他们各自极力推动对自身有利的区域机制,从而形成"制度过剩"。主要行为体在东亚的主导权竞争以区域制度竞争的形式展开。随着金融危机之后中国经济的加速崛起以及美国决心重返东亚,东亚经济整合中制衡与反制衡的矛盾将日益突出,从而带来更加激烈的制度竞争,这是东亚经济地区主义遭遇挫折而非取得成功的标志,东亚地区将因此继续沦为经济全球化进程中的"碎片"。
Since the end of the Cold War, while progress has been made in the development of a common East Asian economy, a mature and stable institutional framework for promoting deep regional economic integration has yet to emerge. Instead, the region has seen competing institutions undermine one another rather than emerging as a force that might effectively promote regional governance. This article argues that the high level of competition between regional institutions in East Asia is explained by the fact that the primary actors in the region have different preferences and strategic needs when it comes to molding an East Asian economic order. As different actors compete with one another in the hope of benefiting from the promotion of a regional framework best suited to individual interests, too many institutions have emerged. Competition between key actors in the region for a leading role has manifested itself in the form of institutional competition. As the pace of China＇s economic rise has increased following the financial crisis and as the United States has resolved to return to East Asia, conflicts over East Asian economic integration will become more obvious, and more intense institution- al competition will result. This indicates that East Asia will continue to face setbacks in the development of a regional economy, and that the region will remain ＂fragmented＂ during the process of globalization.
