摘要 「再平衡」政策顯示美國對亞太地區的關注。本文首先介紹歐巴馬政府「亞太再平衡」戰略的背景，並以經濟、外交、軍事等層面分析其戰略內涵及目標。911事件後中美增加在反恐事務上的合作，然而隨著中國國力的增強，美國對中國進行圍堵的外交策略。中國亦積極削弱美國在亞太地區的影響力。美國期許臺灣在「再平衡」政策下扮演牽制中國崛起的角色，然而臺灣在二強之下，應致力於維持良好之美臺、中臺互動關係，並加深與亞太各國的經貿合作，以使臺灣之利益最大化。本文進一步探討在美國「再平衡政策」下，中國大陸、臺灣在經濟、外交、軍事方面的回應及對兩岸關係造成的衝擊及影響，並進一步就目前的美、中、臺關係預測未來兩岸情勢可能的發展及走向。
The Rebalance to Asia Policy shows the attention the U.S. gives to Asia Pacific region. In this research, I firstly introduced background information of this strategy, and analyzed policy content and purposes from the aspects of economy, diplomacy and military. After the 911 incident, there were signs of genuine cooperatives efforts between China and the U.S, an example being the collaboration between the two countries in anti-terrorism. However, with the increasing power of China, the U.S. has also felt it necessary to constrain China at the same time. China in turn, has also actively tried to reduce U.S.’ influence in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, the U.S. expects Taiwan to play a role in constraining China’s rise with could be counter-productive and risky as China is integral to Taiwan’s economy. Being between the two super powers, Taiwan has had to make maneuvers to show its value to both sides. In order to maximize Taiwan’s interests, Taiwan should maintain good interactions with the U.S. and China and deepen trade and economic relations with Asia Pacific countries. Further research will also discuss China and Taiwan’s response economically, diplomatically and militarily under the Rebalance to Asia policy its impact, and potential future developments of Cross-Strait relations.

dc.description.abstract (摘要) 「再平衡」政策顯示美國對亞太地區的關注。本文首先介紹歐巴馬政府「亞太再平衡」戰略的背景，並以經濟、外交、軍事等層面分析其戰略內涵及目標。911事件後中美增加在反恐事務上的合作，然而隨著中國國力的增強，美國對中國進行圍堵的外交策略。中國亦積極削弱美國在亞太地區的影響力。美國期許臺灣在「再平衡」政策下扮演牽制中國崛起的角色，然而臺灣在二強之下，應致力於維持良好之美臺、中臺互動關係，並加深與亞太各國的經貿合作，以使臺灣之利益最大化。本文進一步探討在美國「再平衡政策」下，中國大陸、臺灣在經濟、外交、軍事方面的回應及對兩岸關係造成的衝擊及影響，並進一步就目前的美、中、臺關係預測未來兩岸情勢可能的發展及走向。zh_TW
dc.description.abstract (摘要) The Rebalance to Asia Policy shows the attention the U.S. gives to Asia Pacific region. In this research, I firstly introduced background information of this strategy, and analyzed policy content and purposes from the aspects of economy, diplomacy and military. After the 911 incident, there were signs of genuine cooperatives efforts between China and the U.S, an example being the collaboration between the two countries in anti-terrorism. However, with the increasing power of China, the U.S. has also felt it necessary to constrain China at the same time. China in turn, has also actively tried to reduce U.S.’ influence in the Asia Pacific region. Additionally, the U.S. expects Taiwan to play a role in constraining China’s rise with could be counter-productive and risky as China is integral to Taiwan’s economy. Being between the two super powers, Taiwan has had to make maneuvers to show its value to both sides. In order to maximize Taiwan’s interests, Taiwan should maintain good interactions with the U.S. and China and deepen trade and economic relations with Asia Pacific countries. Further research will also discuss China and Taiwan’s response economically, diplomatically and militarily under the Rebalance to Asia policy its impact, and potential future developments of Cross-Strait relations.en_US
