By being the host of many high-profile international summits, Singapore has risen to become an international hub for diplomacy in recent decades. Due to their similarities, this has drawn parallels between the Southeast Asian city-state and Switzerland, which also possesses a highly-developed international hub for diplomacy. This is because this European Alpine state has a long-established foreign policy of permanent neutrality. However, while Singapore is also known globally for its impartiality, the city-state is not a neutral state, but adopts a non-aligned foreign policy stance that hedges between bigger powers. Hence, this thesis seeks to find out why has Singapore become an international hub for diplomacy like Switzerland, despite having a different foreign policy stance? This thesis contends that the nature of Singapore’s international hub for diplomacy is distinct from its Swiss counterpart due to the geostrategic dynamics and security structure of the Asia-Pacific region. This has also led to both countries applying neutrality very differently, with Switzerland adhering to legal neutrality which is consistent but static, while Singapore practices relational neutrality in a selective, instrumental manner in a region where diplomatic norms are still evolving. Besides using Switzerland as a reference point for the city-state, this thesis will employ the Smart State Strategy as a theoretical framework to understand how small states like Singapore have created an impression among bigger powers that they are impartial, honest brokers which contribute to regional and global peace and stability. The Shangri-La Dialogue and the 2015 Ma-Xi Cross-Strait will also be employed as case studies to demonstrate how Singapore employs relational neutrality in a multilateral and bilateral setting.參考文獻 Acharya, A.

Due to their similarities, this has drawn parallels between the Southeast Asian city-state and Switzerland, which also possesses a highly-developed international hub for diplomacy. This is because this European Alpine state has a long-established foreign policy of permanent neutrality. However, while Singapore is also known globally for its impartiality, the city-state is not a neutral state, but adopts a non-aligned foreign policy stance that hedges between bigger powers. Hence, this thesis seeks to find out why has Singapore become an international hub for diplomacy like Switzerland, despite having a different foreign policy stance? This thesis contends that the nature of Singapore’s international hub for diplomacy is distinct from its Swiss counterpart due to the geostrategic dynamics and security structure of the Asia-Pacific region. This has also led to both countries applying neutrality very differently, with Switzerland adhering to legal neutrality which is consistent but static, while Singapore practices relational neutrality in a selective, instrumental manner in a region where diplomatic norms are still evolving. Besides using Switzerland as a reference point for the city-state, this thesis will employ the Smart State Strategy as a theoretical framework to understand how small states like Singapore have created an impression among bigger powers that they are impartial, honest brokers which contribute to regional and global peace and stability. The Shangri-La Dialogue and the 2015 Ma-Xi Cross-Strait will also be employed as case studies to demonstrate how Singapore employs relational neutrality in a multilateral and bilateral setting. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION - 1 1.1.
