3. Interdependence (相互依賴 )vs.
Balance of Power (權力平衡)
Robert Keohane and Joseph Nye
(哈佛大學政治學教授基歐漢與奈伊提出):
Interdependence = ‘mutual dependence’
 ‘interconnectedness’ = merely interactions which do not
have significant costly effects
‘dependence’ = ‘a state of being determined or
significantly affected by external forces.’
Interdependence ≠ ‘dependence’ nor ‘
interconnectedness’

Balance of Power (權力平衡)
•A Doctrine of Equilibrium (均勢原則):
做為一國外交政策時，目標在於使相互競爭的各方
勢力處於一穩定相互牽制之局面，不使任何一方過
於強大而打破均勢破壞穩定。
• Example 1: Cross-Strait Relations
(台海權力平衡)
•Example 2: Soviet-US Relations in the ColdWar Period (冷戰時期美國與蘇聯關係):
Mutually Assured Destruction (恐怖平衡、互相保證毀滅)

自由主義 vs. 現實主義
Liberalism vs. Realism
*Neoliberalism-derived from Liberalism,
scholars such as Robert Keohane, Joseph Nye
devoted their work to this approach.
(新自由主義大師以基歐漢與奈伊為主要代表)
*Neorealism-developed from Realism,
Kenneth Waltz is the representative of this
approach.
(新現實主義大師以沃爾茲為代表)

新自由主義 (NeoLiberalism)
*Believe human beings are basically GOOD.
(人民、國家、以及公司的本質是良善的。
*The important role played by international organisationsinternational conflicts can be decreased by them.
(經由國際組織以及國際規則，國家可以自經濟交流中獲
得利益，達到互惠。國際組織可以減少國際衝突。)
*Compared with Neorealism, for neoliberals, absolute
gains are acceptable.
(相較新現實主義，新自由主義比較能接受國與國之間收
益不均的合作行為。 )
*Principle of Reciprocity. (重視互惠原則:即在國際無政府
狀態下，當國際規章與法律無法由一個中央政府來執行時，
國家可以經由互惠方式來實行時國際規則，並藉由國際規
則的實行來促進國家利益。 )
8
新現實主義(Neorealism)
* Human beings and states are rational
self-interest; international conflicts can’t
be avoided.
理性自利 人民和國家都只是依照其自身
的利益行動，並且認為一國只有在對其自
身有利的情況下才會與他國合作。國際衝
突是無法避免的。
*States are interest-maximiser.
國家是單一行為者，他們理性的追求國家
利益的最大化。
