特朗普“颠覆”美国外交传统?没有。——起底美国外交一以贯之的霸权本色
Xin Hua Wang· 2025-03-24 07:19
Core Viewpoint - The article argues that Trump's foreign policy does not fundamentally overturn the traditional U.S. diplomatic approach but rather reflects a more overt expression of the long-standing U.S. hegemonic nature in international relations [1][4][6]. Group 1: U.S. Foreign Policy Under Trump - Trump's administration has been characterized by a series of "America First" policies, which include imposing tariffs, withdrawing from international agreements, and exerting pressure on allies, suggesting a return to a more isolationist stance reminiscent of 19th-century imperialism [2][3][8]. - The administration's actions, such as the imposition of 25% tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, reflect a protectionist ideology that has historical precedents in U.S. foreign policy [2][6]. - Trump's rhetoric about making Canada the "51st state" and threats to annex Greenland illustrate a revival of imperialistic tendencies in U.S. diplomacy [3][5]. Group 2: Historical Context and Continuity - The article highlights that many of Trump's foreign policy actions have historical parallels, such as previous administrations' withdrawal from international organizations and the use of economic leverage to achieve political goals [4][6]. - Notable examples include Reagan's and Obama's administrations, which also exhibited similar tendencies to withdraw support from international bodies when U.S. interests were perceived to be compromised [4][6]. - The historical context of U.S. interventions, such as the CIA's involvement in the overthrow of Congolese Prime Minister Lumumba, underscores a long-standing pattern of prioritizing resource control and geopolitical interests over international norms [6][8]. Group 3: The Nature of "America First" - The concept of "America First" is portrayed as a consistent theme in U.S. foreign policy, driven by a desire to maintain hegemony and respond to perceived threats to national interests [7][8]. - Analysts suggest that the current administration's more blatant embrace of "America First" reflects a response to declining U.S. power and rising anxieties among the elite and the general populace [8]. - The article posits that the roots of Trump's policies can be traced back to historical U.S. expansionism and a self-serving interpretation of democracy that justifies unilateral actions on the global stage [8].

特朗普-拜登-特朗普,中国公司面前的确定与不确定
晚点LatePost· 2024-11-11 15:59
从两届对立政府的政策中,找到延续的政策。 文丨孙海宁 高洪浩 曾兴 李梓楠 陈晶 邱豪 编辑丨高洪浩 黄俊杰 2025 年 1 月 20 日早 9 点半,美国新当选总统将来到白宫和乔 · 拜登在白宫蓝厅喝一杯咖啡。一小时后, 他们将坐同一辆防弹的凯迪拉克轿车来到国会大厦西草坪参加就职典礼,尽管这时拜登政府的检察官还在 想办法给特朗普定罪。 当天的流程完全固定,连二人在车上的座位都是固定的——特朗普在左,拜登在右。这将是他们第一次分 享总统座驾,2020 年大选结束后,特朗普的支持者冲进国会山又被逐出,他本人则提前搬出白宫,缺席就 职典礼。但这一次拜登宣布会延续此前 150 年不变的传统,以展示权力的和平交接。 平和的日子不会持续几天。上一次就任不到一周,特朗普就签署了第一份总统行政令(Executive Order),兑现选举承诺,禁止来自七个穆斯林国家的人员入境美国——无论他们是游客还是难民,就算有 绿卡也会被拦下。"这可能政治不正确,但我不在乎。" 他说。 行政令只持续了两天——两名伊拉克移民起诉总统违宪。随后,法院颁布暂缓强制遣返的指令。 这是一场计划内的反击。特朗普 2016 年胜选后,有数千名律师参 ...
特朗普大循环-后续的影响

导读 东北偏北FM直播内容的正式文字梳理版本,以上是视频直播回放有兴趣的可以点击观 ---付鹏 东北证券首席经济学家 民,鼓励使用化石燃料,并重视科技创新, 自2016年特朗普首次参选以来,全球经历了重大变革。美国大选的结果不仅影响了顶层意识形态,还深刻 改变了政治格局,导致内政、经济和外交政策的急剧转变。这一系列变化对全球经济产生了深远的影响,自那 时起,美国的每一次大选都引起了全球的极大关注。 如果在当前就业市场状况下,能够有效减缓移民流入,那么特朗普提出的"减税-加关税-刺激资本回流-限制 移民-进一步促进就业和薪资增长"的经济循环,无疑将加速经济增长,使劳动力市场趋紧,并可能导致进口成本 上升(尽管这可能会被汇率变动所抵消)。 西方社会的极端左翼所引发的社会矛盾,以及精英阶层与普通民众之间的对立,在过去几年的三次大选中导 致了政治向右翼的显著转变。即便在拜登政府领导下,民主党采取了适度的中左政策,但在处理国际地缘政治 问题上的立场以及对内部问题的温和处理方式,并未完全获得公众的支持。这也使得特朗普的"让美国再次伟 大"(MAGA)运动在某些群体中更受欢迎。因此,特朗普在此次竞选中以压倒性的优势赢得了胜 ...
