摘要

菲律宾对“一带一路”倡议的参与是一个国内变化的例子，从2016年到现在，它从被动转变为热烈欢迎。在杜特尔特政府的领导下，“一带一路”成为与中国友好关系的焦点之一，尽管与中国在南中国海存在领土争端，对中国的公众舆论很低，本文考察了阿基诺和杜特尔特政府如何看待菲律宾与中国在参与“一带一路”倡议时的权力不对称。杜特尔特的积极立场可以通过“一带一路”项目如何帮助巩固这位民粹主义领导人的权威和合法性来解释。考虑到杜特尔特的大规模基础设施计划、菲律宾政府的结构性限制及其对中国和该地区其他大国的外交政策立场，本文评估了菲律宾参与“一带一路”的好处和风险。文章分析了在新冠肺炎疫情和大国关系变化背景下，“一带一路”项目在菲律宾的未来前景

The Philippines’ Shifting Engagement with China’s Belt and Road Initiative: The Politics of Duterte’s Legitimation

The Philippines’ engagement with the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is a case of within-country variation as it shifted from passivity to warm reception from 2016 to the present day Under the Duterte administration, the BRI became one of the focal points of cordial relations with China, despite ongoing territorial disputes with China in the South China Sea, low public opinion of China, and the Philippines’ security partnerships with the major powers defending the current international order This article examines how the Aquino and Duterte administrations perceived the Philippines’ power asymmetry with China in its engagement with BRI While this power asymmetry has been maintained, if not increased over the years, Duterte’s positive stance can be explained by how the BRI projects can possibly help consolidate the authority and legitimacy of the populist leader The essay assesses the benefits and risks of the Philippines’ engagement with the BRI, considering Duterte’s massive infrastructure program, the structural limitations of the Philippine government and its foreign policy positions with respect to China and the other powers in the region In conclusion, the article analyzes the future prospects of BRI projects in the Philippines, given the COVID-19 pandemic and changes in big-power relations
