Abstract:

The EU has long positioned itself as a peace project, seeking to transcend the traditional restrictions of geopolitics and realpolitik in order to engage in values- and norms-based social reform and local governance. However, with the onset of the Arab Spring and the Ukraine crisis, the neighborhood region has become a "ring of fire", and the EU's idea and practice of neighborhood strategy have taken a significant turn.This paper mainly adopts a policy text and case study approach.Through the analysis of the EU's neighbourhood policy texts and practices,this paper argues that the EU's strategic narrative on the neighborhood has shifted from a normative orientation to a security orientation, and is guided by geopolitical thinking, presenting a hierarchical order of geopolitical model, adopting a differentiated strategy for the neighborhood, and pursuing its own geostrategic interests more aggressively. Overall, the change in the EU's neighborhood governance philosophy and practice has reduced the relevance of its norm-based association,while the practice of exclusionary competition is not only detrimental to the neighborhood's economic and social development, but also undermines EU's overall credibility.

摘要：

长期以来欧盟将自身定位为一个和平项目，旨在超越地缘政治和现实政治的传统束缚，以价值观和规范为导向参与邻近区域社会改革与治理。但随着“阿拉伯之春”和乌克兰危机的爆发，邻近区域演变成“火圈”，欧盟邻近区域战略理念和实践也发生了重大转向。本文主要采用政策文本和案例分析法，通过对欧盟邻近区域政策文本和政策实践分析，认为欧盟对邻近区域战略叙事从规范导向转向安全导向，并以地缘政治思想为指导，呈现出等级秩序地缘政治模式，对邻近区域采取差异化战略，更加直接地追求自身地缘战略利益，且增加在邻近区域遏制和防范其他行为体的目标并制定相应约束条件。从整体上看，欧盟邻近区域治理理念和实践的转变一定程度上降低了其基于规范联合的相关性，而排他性竞争的做法不仅不利于邻近区域经济社会发展，还损害了欧盟的整体信誉。
