摘要 權力集中對區域制度的設計及實踐會產生什麼影響?是什麼原因以及在什麼條件下,區域強權會接受建立更獨立的區域制度?本研究認為,在區域組織中,若權力集中於一個佔優勢的國家時,此組織的設計和實踐會受到影響。本研究運用過程回溯法分析南美洲的南方共同市場(MERCOSUR),發現身為區域強權的巴西較偏好缺乏獨立性的機構。而當面臨巴西為何在2002年接受區域制度更具獨立性的難題時,本研究認為Pedersen(2002)的合作性霸權途徑可以做出解釋,具體來說,巴西接受區域制度更具獨立性的原因是為了在不利的情況下維持該組織的凝聚力。
What is the effect of power concentration in the design and implementation of regional institutions? Why, and in what conditions, regional great powers accept the establishment of more independent formats of regional institutions? This thesis argues that the concentration of power in a preponderant state within a regional organization affects the design and implementation of regional institutions. By employing process-tracing to study the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR) in South America, it finds that Brazil as a regional great power preferred institutions that lacked independence. Faced with the puzzle on why Brazil accepted more independent institutions in 2002, it argues that Pedersen (2002)’s cooperative hegemony approach help explain these events. More specifically, that Brazil accepted more institutional independence as a side-payment to maintain the bloc`s cohesion in an adverse scenario.

dc.description.abstract (摘要) 權力集中對區域制度的設計及實踐會產生什麼影響?是什麼原因以及在什麼條件下,區域強權會接受建立更獨立的區域制度?本研究認為,在區域組織中,若權力集中於一個佔優勢的國家時,此組織的設計和實踐會受到影響。本研究運用過程回溯法分析南美洲的南方共同市場(MERCOSUR),發現身為區域強權的巴西較偏好缺乏獨立性的機構。而當面臨巴西為何在2002年接受區域制度更具獨立性的難題時,本研究認為Pedersen(2002)的合作性霸權途徑可以做出解釋,具體來說,巴西接受區域制度更具獨立性的原因是為了在不利的情況下維持該組織的凝聚力。zh_TW
dc.description.abstract (摘要) What is the effect of power concentration in the design and implementation of regional institutions? Why, and in what conditions, regional great powers accept the establishment of more independent formats of regional institutions? This thesis argues that the concentration of power in a preponderant state within a regional organization affects the design and implementation of regional institutions. By employing process-tracing to study the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR) in South America, it finds that Brazil as a regional great power preferred institutions that lacked independence. Faced with the puzzle on why Brazil accepted more independent institutions in 2002, it argues that Pedersen (2002)’s cooperative hegemony approach help explain these events. More specifically, that Brazil accepted more institutional independence as a side-payment to maintain the bloc`s cohesion in an adverse scenario.en_US
