摘要

证券化是各国政府在新冠疫情暴发初期的一种常见做法。为了成功地将流行病证券化，政府必须让其公民相信威胁的严重性。受信任的政府应该能够比不受信任的政府更有效地做到这一点。我们研究的香港是一个独特的案例，因为香港政府在政治信任度极低的情况下成功控制了疫情。本文考察了对政府和智能技术的信任在多大程度上影响了香港COVID-19大流行的证券化和管理。这项研究的结果表明，在某些情况下，政府可以成功地管理突发卫生事件，即使他们没有得到太多的政治信任。

Securitizing COVID-19 in an Environment of Low Political Trust

Securitization was a common practice of governments during the first phases of the COVID-19 outbreak. To successfully securitize a pandemic, a government has to convince its citizens of the magnitude of the threat. Trusted governments should be able to do this more effectively than untrusted ones. Hong Kong, our case study, is unique because the government managed to control the pandemic in a context of extremely low political trust. This paper examines the extent to which trust in the government and smart technologies influenced the securitization and management of the COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong. The results of this study suggest that under certain circumstances governments can successfully manage a health emergency even when they do not enjoy much political trust.

期刊介绍： The only academic journal of its kind produced in the United States, Asian Survey provides a comprehensive retrospective of contemporary international relations within South, Southeast, and East Asian nations. As the Asian community’s matrix of activities becomes increasingly complex, it is essential to have a sourcebook for sound analysis of current events, governmental policies, socio-economic development, and financial institutions. In Asian Survey you’ll find that sourcebook. Asian Survey consistently publishes articles by leading American and foreign scholars, whose views supplement and contest meanings disseminated by the media.
