围绕东南亚的地区政治随着中国的“一带一路”倡议(BRI)和通过印度太平洋概念的反倡议而呈现出重大发展。本文旨在研究印尼的战略反应,这种区域发展。报告认为,印尼对“一带一路”倡议和印太概念做出了政策回应,通过采取相互矛盾的政策选项来对冲中国经济实力造成的不确定性。这种对冲策略体现在多个方面:对“一带一路”采取经济包容和经济多元化;在与中国的海上安全紧张局势中采取对抗战略,同时追求经济实用主义以吸引“一带一路”资金;通过推进东南亚国家联盟(东盟)使用印度太平洋术语的区域倡议来限制对中国及其“一带一路”的依赖。调查结果表明,在不断变化的地区政治中,印度尼西亚的立场对于巩固东盟作为主要地区组织的地位至关重要。
Regional politics surrounding Southeast Asia has exhibited significant developments with China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and counter initiatives through the Indo‐Pacific concept. This article seeks to examine Indonesia's strategic reactions to such regional developments. It argues that Indonesia has exhibited policy responses to the BRI and the Indo‐Pacific concept by hedging against uncertainties created by China's economic prowess through the adoption of mutually contradictory policy options. Such a hedging strategy was present in various dimensions: adopting economic accommodation and economic diversification regarding the BRI; taking confrontational strategies in maritime security tensions with China while pursuing economic pragmatism for attracting BRI funds; and restraining reliance on China and its BRI by pushing forwards Association of Southeast Asian Nations' (ASEAN) regional initiative that uses the Indo‐Pacific term. The findings indicate that Indonesia's position is crucial for bolstering ASEAN's status as the main regional organization under evolving regional politics.
