虽然关于国际关系中的依赖问题已有大量文献,但许多基本概念问题仍未解决。发达工业国家之间的相互依赖模式,与边缘资本主义社会对全球体系其他成员的依赖模式,是在性质上不同,还是仅仅在程度上不同?在构建一个适当的依赖性衡量标准之前,必须确定依赖性的基本组成部分是什么?依赖和权力之间的关系是什么?由于对第一个问题的回答是,这两种依赖模式在性质上不同,因此,首先要做的是为这种区分提供依据。依赖性是一种高度一体化的民族国家相互依赖的模式,而依赖性更接近于依赖性传统,涉及一系列更复杂的关系,其核心是将欠发达、不太同质的社会纳入全球劳动分工。依赖性的概念组成部分是一个人对另一个人的依赖程度,对所涉货物的重视程度,以及这些货物(或替代品)从不同来源的可获得性。依赖性的组成部分是重要生产要素(技术、资本)的外国供应量、有限的发展选择和国内“扭曲”措施。最后,依赖性的概念最容易融入讨价还价的分析,而依赖性是更富有成效地应用于社会之间的关系结构的分析。
Although there is already a huge literature on dependence in international relations, many fundamental conceptual issues remain unresolved. Is the pattern of dependence of advanced industrial states on one another different in kind or only in degree from the dependence of peripheral capitalist societies on other members of the global system? What are the essential components of dependence that one must identify before constructing an adequate measure of it? What is the relationship between dependence and power? Since the answer to the first question is that the two patterns of dependence differ in kind, the first order of business is to provide the grounds for this distinction. Dependence is the pattern of external reliance of well-integrated nation-states on one another while dependency, which is closer to the dependencia tradition, involves a more complex set of relations centering on the incorporation of less developed, less homogeneous societies into the global division of labor. The conceptual components of dependence are the size of one's reliance on another, the importance attached to the goods involved, and the availability of these goods (or substitutes) from different sources. The components of dependency are the magnitude of foreign supply of important factors of production (technology, capital), limited developmental choices, and domestic “distortion” measures. Finally, the concept of dependence is most easily integrated into bargaining analyses while dependency is more fruitfully applied to analyses of the structure of relations among societies.
