在过去的半个世纪里,印度洋区域的人际关系网经历了重大的重组。更准确地说,该地区的经济孤立性已经减弱,而后殖民国家既限制了人口流动,又重新定位了沿着人民的政治想象力。与此同时,特别是自冷战结束以来,印度洋已恢复作为社会交流和分析单位的活力。本文探讨了印度洋非洲在多极世界背景下的意义,重点是国家的命令如何改变了该地区,石油经济以及社会参与的转变方式如何产生了新的联系。本文认为,虽然后殖民时代影响了某些历史连通路线的关闭,但当代国家和航空旅行等因素构建的关系鼓励了区域一致性的观念。我们可以称之为“盆地意识”,它已经开始扭转后殖民时代早期的内向政治,并将印度洋作为一种理念注入了活力。
The networks of human relation that define the Indian Ocean region have undergone significant reconfiguration in the last half-century. More precisely, the economic insularity of the region has diminished while the postcolonial nation has both restricted movement and reoriented the political imaginations of people along the rim. At the same time, the Indian Ocean has been revivified as a unit of social exchange and analysis, particularly since the end of the Cold War. This article explores the meaning of Indian Ocean Africa in the context of a multipolar world by focusing on how the dictates of nations have transformed the region and how the petroleum economy as well as shifting means of social engagement have engendered new linkages. The essay argues that although the postcolonial era affected the closure of certain historical routes of connectivity, relationships structured by contemporary nations and air travel, among other things, have encouraged perceptions of regional coherence. What we might term basin consciousness has begun to reverse the introverted politics of the early postcolonial era and animate the Indian Ocean as an idea.
