通过对日本、中国和韩国丝绸之路叙事演变的分析,认为这些丝绸之路战略的内容和性质随着时间和国际环境的变化而变化。因此,本文认为,丝绸之路的概念已经从一个静态的历史贸易路线的概念变成了一些强大国家的社会建设的产物-不断塑造,想象和重新解释的战略。从这个意义上说,丝绸之路不是一种外交政策学说,而是一种主要存在于叙事领域的话语性接触战略。这种叙述也是一种因国家的国际环境(中国、日本、韩国等)而变化的社会建设问题这产生了这样的叙述,一个接收区域的背景下,竞争更广泛的国际接受和国家的“自我”和“他者”在国际背景下的愿景的替代叙述。
Through analysis of the evolution of the Japanese, Chinese and South Korean narratives of the Silk Road, this paper argues that the content and the nature of these Silk Road strategies changed with time and the international environment. Thus, this paper claims that, the notion of the Silk Road has changed from a static concept of a historical trade route into a product of social construction of a number of powerful states – strategies that are constantly shaped, imagined and re-interpreted. In this sense, the Silk Road is not a foreign policy doctrine but rather a discursive strategy of engagement that largely exists in the realm of narration. This narration is also a matter of social construction that is subject to change depending on the international environment of the country (China, Japan, Korea, etc.) that produces such narratives, context of a receiving region, the alternative narratives that compete for wider international acceptance and the country's vision of “self” and the “other” in the international context.
