1995暨1996年台海危機事件之探究

THE RESEARCH OF THE TAIWAN STRAIT CRISIS OF 1995-1996

　　中共的外交政策通常會與軍方的重大利益及其所關切的國家安全事項密切相關。外交部的政策以軟性與和善為主，希望能與大部分亞洲國家以及世界列強維持友善或友好的關係，以期能保持一個有利於中共持續經濟成長與政治穩定的客觀環境；而對軍隊而言，雖然支援國家戰略的目標是軍隊應有的態度，但由於中共軍隊的主要職責乃在於保衛國家安全，並防阻可能浮現的威脅行為，因此軍隊一般都堅持在外交政策層面應以強硬的態度為主。可見，軍隊和外交部的認知及目標有時是會相互抵觸。本論文以1995-1996台海危機事件作為分析的案例，以角色理論的觀點來探究外交系統與解放軍的立場與態度，藉此以瞭解其對台決策過程之因素考量。

　　After China's economic openness, the military security issues are more important. The conflicts between PLA and Ministry of Foreign Affairs often arise. PLA has the strong attitude toward the foreign policy; and Ministry of Foreign Affairs has the soft attitude toward the foreign policy. It is thus clear that the recognition and goal of PLA and Ministry of Foreign Affairs sometimes conflict. The research aim of this article is to analyze the decision-making of PLA and Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the Taiwan Strait Crisis of 1995-1996. This article will analyze the attitude and goal of PLA and Foreign Affairs by Role Theory.
