摘要

在这篇文章中，我们从采访和二手资料中探讨了为什么柬埔寨欢迎中国的崛起，而其他国家似乎不那么热情。尽管该地区对中国的自信感到震惊，但与其他一些民族国家不同，柬埔寨选择了追随中国。尽管该地区的一些国家正在推行一种混合战略，一方面与中国进行经济接触，另一方面与美国进行安全结盟（即对冲），这使这些国家能够与美国和中国保持良好关系，但柬埔寨几乎完全接受了中国。本文针对IR文献中关于搭便车、平衡和对冲的问题，提出了四个变量来解释柬埔寨对华搭便车政策背后的动机。最后，我们为柬埔寨向前迈进提出一些建议。

An “Ironclad Friend”: Explaining Cambodia’s Bandwagoning Policy towards China

In this article, drawing from both interviews and secondary sources, we examine why Cambodia welcomes the rise of China when other states appear to be less enthusiastic. Despite the alarm in the region at China’s assertiveness, Cambodia, unlike some other nation states, has chosen to bandwagon with China. While some states in the region are pursuing a mixed strategy of economic engagement with China on the one hand and security alignment with the United States on the other (i.e. hedging), which allows such states to be on good terms with both the United States and China, Cambodia has embraced China almost exclusively. Situating the issue within the IR literature of bandwagoning, balancing, and hedging, this article presents four variables explaining the motivations behind Cambodia’s bandwagoning policy towards China. Towards the end, we offer some suggestions for Cambodia to move forward.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Current Southeast Asian Affairs, published by the GIGA Institute of Asian Studies (IAS) in Hamburg, is an internationally refereed journal. The publication focuses on current developments in international relations, politics, economics, society, education, environment and law in Southeast Asia. The topics covered should not only be oriented towards specialists in Southeast Asian affairs, but should also be of relevance to readers with a practical interest in the region. For more than three decades, the Journal of Current Southeast Asian Affairs (formerly Südostasien aktuell) has regularly provided – six times per year and in German - insightful and in-depth analyses of current issues in political, social and economic life; culture; and development in Southeast Asia. It continues to be devoted to the transfer of scholarly insights to a wider audience and is the leading academic journal devoted exclusively to this region. Interested readers can access the abstracts and tables of contents of earlier issues of the journal via the webpage http://www.giga-hamburg.de/de/publikationen/archiv.
