摘要 本文探讨了阿拉伯之春及之后阿尔及利亚、埃及、利比亚、摩洛哥和突尼斯三个暴力非国家行为体——叛乱组织、恐怖组织和外国战斗人员——不断变化的外交政策影响力。它利用作者编制的独特数据集（1970-2015）来探讨经历各种形式政治动荡的国家或地理区域（例如阿拉伯之春期间的北非）是否表现出更严重的非国家暴力行为者的暴力行为。北非领导人将追求国家安全作为首要外交政策目标来应对这一暴力行为。这种反应导致阿拉伯之春的其他预期效益被边缘化，包括社会经济发展、人权改革和民主化。相反，北非新老领导人都与地区和国际伙伴进行协调，以追求共同的以国家安全为导向的外交政策目标，尤其是反恐。
ABSTRACT This article explores the evolving foreign policy influence of three violent non-state actors – insurgent groups, terrorist organisations and foreign fighters – in Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia during the Arab Spring and beyond. It draws on a unique dataset (1970–2015) compiled by the authors to explore whether countries or geographical regions experiencing various forms of political unrest, such as North Africa during the Arab Spring, exhibit greater levels of violence by violent non-state actors. North African leaders have responded to this violence by making the pursuit of national security their primary foreign policy goal. This response has led to the marginalisation of other expected benefits of the Arab Spring, including socio-economic development, human rights reforms and democratisation. North African leaders – old and new alike – have instead coordinated with regional and international partners in the pursuit of common national security-oriented foreign policy objectives, most notably counterterrorism.
