摘要

隨著在東南亞地區逐漸增加其軟權力的使用，中國廣泛地減輕東協諸國對於其所造成的軍事與經濟威脅認知，不僅對美國的外交政策造成威脅，也削弱了美國的傳統影響力。本文嘗試以軟權力作為研究途徑來分析美中兩國在該地區軟權力的構築與競爭。首先，本文論述軟權力的定義以作為分析的基礎；其次論述美中兩國於該地區所採取的外交政策，以了解雙方軟權力的構築；最後，則希望分析探討雙方軟權力競逐的意涵，並提出美中兩國未來的政策展望。

With its rise, China has increased its soft power while U.S.'s has declined. China's growing use of soft power in Southeast Asia presented new challenges to U.S. foreign policy. By downplaying many conflicting interests and working collaboratively with countries and regional organizations on such issues as territorial disputes and trade, Beijing has largely allayed Southeast Asian concerns that China poses a military or economic threat. With the decline of America's soft power, China's diplomatic engagement has earned the country greater respect in the region. China has not only enhanced its relations with Southeast Asian states, but has also diminished U.S. power and influence in the region. This research adopts the ”soft power” approach to analyze the construction and competition for soft power in Southeast Asia between U.S. and China. This essay first defines soft power as the basis of analysis. In order to understand the construction of the soft power in Southeast Asia, a further dissection of U.S. and China foreign policies respectively is needed. Finally, the paper analyzes the implications of soft power competition between the two countries, and suggests U.S. and China future policy options in this region.
