後西方時代的新興國際關係議程，如何改寫西方與非西方關係？

Reinscribing West and non-West Relations: Emerging IR Research Agendas in the post-Western Era

本文從後西方時代的新興國際關係研究議程，探討國際關係學中，西方與非西方關係的演變，即：非西方如何從被動的知識客體，可能演變為共創知識的積極主體。透過檢視國際關係學中，非西方的角色與功能，本文發現：後西方時代的國際關係研究裡，非西方知識社群，正隨著新興國際關係議程開展，逐漸從驗證理論的經驗資料、西方國際關係學術模式的接收者，漸變為國際關係知識的生產者。非西方視角的比較與批判，豐富並擴充了後西方時代的新興國際關係議程，使其走向了比較國際關係思想研究，展現了國際關係知識中，西方與非西方相互構成，從而克服二元對立認識論，有助後西方國際關係從關係轉向的角度，重新想像國際關係。

This article probes into the evolution of West and non-West relations within IR scholarship along with the examination of emerging IR research agendas in the post-Western era. It argues that the non-West has gradually become the established knowledge co-productor with its deeper and broader engagement in the global IR communities instead of being the laboratories for testing given IR theories as well as the receivers of Western IR scholarship. The critical and comparative niches of the non-West have enriched and expanded the contents of emerging IR research making the research of comparative IR thought a feasible and productive orientation. By reinscribing the co-constitution of the West and the non-West, it is not only possible to overcome the epistemic binary, but also to reimagine IR by changing referent in a relational perspective.
