摘要

在寻求为其侵略乌克兰的战争辩护时，俄罗斯提出了各种各样的法律、准法律和规范主张，以及政治修辞和透明的复仇主义。通过对俄罗斯关于战争的演讲和文本的定性内容分析，本文解构了俄罗斯的法律和政治论点，并分析了它们的修辞特征以及它们的目标受众。它还评估了普京对乌克兰“历史上的俄罗斯地区”的民族统一主张的工具性。文章的结论是，滥用法律和规范话语，不仅为全面入侵辩护，而且为领土吞并辩护，是对核心全球规则和规范的主要威胁。

Russia’s Case for War against Ukraine: Legal Claims, Political Rhetoric, and Instrumentality in a Fracturing International Order

In seeking to justify its war of aggression against Ukraine, Russia has presented a wide variety of legal, quasi-legal, and normative claims, alongside political rhetoric and transparent revanchism. Drawing on a qualitative content analysis of Russian speeches and texts concerning the war, this article deconstructs Russia’s legal and political arguments and analyzes their rhetorical character as well as their intended audiences. It also assesses the instrumentality of Putin’s irredentist claims on “historic Russian regions” in Ukraine. The article concludes that this abuse of legal and normative discourse to justify not only a full-scale invasion but also territorial annexation is a central threat to core global rules and norms.
