摘要/Abstract

摘要：

城市外交作为国家总体外交的重要组成部分，其活力与资源整合对于全面推进国家战略具有重要意义。为探究如何充分激活城市外交活力使其更好地服务于国家总体外交，选取1945—2023年法国城市的13 488项去中心化合作项目作为研究对象，基于多层级治理理论，利用ArcGIS等软件进行描述性和因果性分析。研究表明：①法国城市外交在时间上可以分为5个演化阶段：探索期、发展期、黄金期、稳定期以及改革期，受到“全球-大区域-国家-地方”四重因素的影响；②法国城市外交的空间分布服务于国家在不同阶段的总体外交需求，呈现极不均衡的特征；③在“全球-大区域-国家-地方”的互动中，法国城市逐渐发展出了契合本国全球影响力的多层级公私合作网络机制。在填补现有研究不足的基础上，本文旨在借法国城市外交之石，为中国城市走向外交前台并更有效地参与和推动国家战略提供参考和启发.

Abstract:

As an important part of the country's overall diplomacy, the activation of city diplomacy's vitality and the integration of resources are of great significance to the comprehensive promotion of national strategies. To explore how to activate urban diplomatic vitality and better serve overall national diplomacy, 13,488 decentralized cooperation projects in French cities from 1945 to 2023 were selected as the research object, and descriptive and causal studies were conducted based on the perspective of multilevel governance theory, using software such as ArcGIS. The results show that: ① The evolution of French urban diplomacy can be divided into five stages over time: the exploration period, development period, golden period, stable period, and reform period, influenced by the four forces of "local-national-regional-global" interaction. ② The spatial distribution of French urban diplomacy serves its national overall diplomacy at different stages, demonstrating highly uneven characteristics. ③ In the interaction of "local-national-regional-global," French cities have gradually developed network-embedded hierarchical public-private partnership mechanisms that align with France's global influence level. Building upon the deficiencies of existing research, this paper aims to leverage the experience of French urban diplomacy to provide reference and inspiration for Chinese cities to step onto the diplomatic forefront, and effectively participate in and promote national strategy.
