南太平洋视角下的“印太”战略：政策进展与互动机制

Abstract:This paper sorts out the South Pacific policy of the United States，Japan，Australia and India under the framework of Indo-Pacific，analyzes the reasons why the four countries choose Pacific Island Countries as a focus of Indo Pacific Strategy. From the perspective of geography，the Pacific Ocean，Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean are the three important components of the Indo-Arc. During the concept transition from Asia-Pacific to Indo-Pacific，the strategic position of the Pacific Island Countries（PICs）has been greatly enhanced. Due to the difficulties encountered in the Indian Ocean and Southeast Asia and basing on the natural advantages of four countries in the South Pacific，Indo-Pacific strategy is far more policy-intensive in PICs than in other regions. In the face of intense competition of major powers in the South Pacific region，especially when Indo-Pacific strategy aims to hedge China’s Belt and Road Initiative，Pacific Island Countries need to make judgments and choices basing on their own development needs.
