摘要

对武装非国家行为体(ANSAs)的研究在过去二十年中呈指数级增长。本文通过借鉴中东地区的各种实例，探讨了作为外交政策分析(FPA)的一个新的实证领域的ANSAs外交政策，以显示该领域在新的实证和理论研究方面的优点。这篇文章指出了ANSAs外交政策的领域，显示了FPA的研究到目前为止是如何以国家为中心的，几乎完全忽视了ANSAs。虽然ANSAs的外部参与是在内战的学术范围内进行研究的，但FPA可以适应于对这一现象提供系统的学术理解。最后，文章探讨了研究ANSAs的外交政策如何振兴FPA并推动其议程进入新的方向。

Foreign Policy Analysis and Armed Non-State Actors in World Politics: Lessons from the Middle East

The study of armed non-state actors (ANSAs) has grown exponentially in the last two decades. This article explores the foreign policy of ANSAs as a new empirical domain for foreign policy analysis (FPA) by drawing on various examples from the Middle East to show the merit of this area for novel empirical and theoretical studies. The article identifies the domain of ANSAs’ foreign policy showing how FPA research has so far remained state-centric and almost completely ignores ANSAs. While the external engagement of ANSAs were examined within the scholarship on civil wars, FPA can be adapted to provide systematic scholarly understanding of this phenomenon. Finally, the article explores how studying ANSAs’ foreign policies can revitalize FPA and drive its agenda into new directions.

期刊介绍： Reflecting the diverse, comparative and multidisciplinary nature of the field, Foreign Policy Analysis provides an open forum for research publication that enhances the communication of concepts and ideas across theoretical, methodological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries. By emphasizing accessibility of content for scholars of all perspectives and approaches in the editorial and review process, Foreign Policy Analysis serves as a source for efforts at theoretical and methodological integration and deepening the conceptual debates throughout this rich and complex academic research tradition. Foreign policy analysis, as a field of study, is characterized by its actor-specific focus. The underlying, often implicit argument is that the source of international politics and change in international politics is human beings, acting individually or in groups. In the simplest terms, foreign policy analysis is the study of the process, effects, causes or outputs of foreign policy decision-making in either a comparative or case-specific manner.
