Конструктивистский подход к стратегии Вьетнама на фоне геоэкономического соперничества США и Китая: случай BRI и IPEF


TERRA ECONOMICUS, Том 23, номер 2,

Цитирование: Nguyen N.T., Nguyen A.Q., Tran B.L.X., Tran H.X. (2025). A constructivist approach to Vietnam strategy amid U.S. – China geoeconomic rivalry: The case of BRI and IPEF. Terra Economicus 23(2), 126–136. DOI: 10.18522/2073-6606-2025-23-2-126-136

Критическое положение Юго-Восточной Азии в целом и Вьетнама в частности делает их главным «полем битвы» геоэкономического соперничества США и Китая за влияние в регионе. Стратегия Вьетнама, обычно рассматриваемая как «хождение по натянутому канату», направлена на достижение баланса, использование преимуществ и противодействие рискам, исходящим от обеих держав. Однако такое объяснение, как и ориентация на национальные интересы, не отражает в полной мере специфику этой стратегии, являющейся частью уникальной внешней политики Вьетнама. Эта статья посвящена исследованию движущей силы вьетнамской стратегии в контексте соперничества между Китаем и США в геоэкономическом плане, в частности, столкновению между китайской инициативой «Один пояс – один путь» (BRI) и американской Индо-Тихоокеанской экономической программой процветания (IPEF) в регионе. Исследуя подход Вьетнама через призму конструктивизма, мы утверждаем, что отличительной чертой внешней политики Вьетнама является опора на исторический опыт, идентичность и региональные нормы страны.

Ключевые слова: внешняя политика Вьетнама; конструктивизм; BRI; IPEF; соперничество великих держав; экономическая конкуренция США и Китая
