摘要本文运用建构主义的方法探讨中国与东盟关系演变背景下的社会化过程。建构主义的讨论挑战了传统的社会化帐户;然而,留下的研究是社会学习和社会变革发生的过程。本文通过对东盟区域参与过程的考察,为理论探讨做出了贡献。它将东盟国家与中国的“复杂接触”视为一种辩论性说服的练习,即通过审议、非强制性的过程寻求共同协议。在对比东盟的特定风格的参与与其他模式,强调更具强制性和功利性的说服策略,文章提请注意如何特定类型的互动可能促进社会学习,以及可能使社会学习更有可能的条件。特别注意的是权力不对称,不确定性和不同类型的参与(相互和互动与封闭和单向)在社会学习中所扮演的角色,以及将社会化视为一个涉及不同阶段的过程的重要性。
Abstract This article draws on constructivist approaches to explore processes of socialization in the context of evolving relations between China and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Constructivist discussions have challenged traditional accounts of socialization; however, left under-examined are the processes by which social learning and social change take place. This article contributes to the theoretical discussion with its examination of ASEAN's regional engagement processes. It treats ASEAN states' ‘complex engagement’ of China as an exercise in argumentative persuasion, which seeks common agreement via a deliberative, non-coercive process. In contrasting ASEAN's particular style of engagement with other models that emphasize more coercive and utilitarian strategies of persuasion, the article draws attention to how particular kinds of interaction may facilitate social learning, as well as the conditions that may make social learning more likely. Particular attention is paid to the roles played by power asymmetries, uncertainty, and different kinds of engagement (mutual and interactive versus closed and unidirectional) in social learning, as well as the importance of viewing socialization as a process that involves different stages.
