[[alternative]]The Diplomatic Asian Policy of European Union on East Asia in the Era of Post-Cold War

[[abstract]]從16世紀末歐洲國家在東亞地區開始殖民行動以來，歐洲與東亞各國一直存有「宗主國」和「被殖民國」的不平等關係，直至1980年代起東亞國家的出口急速擴張，造就傲人的「東亞金融奇蹟」，歐洲國家才正視其與亞洲區域的發展關係。為此，歐洲聯盟於1994年公佈第一份對亞洲的發展策略：《面向新亞洲戰略》，並在2001年9月4日通過的對亞洲新政策《加強亞歐夥伴關係的戰略架構》中揭示，21世紀歐盟將致力於：(一)、藉由提高亞洲事務的參與，對該地區及全球和平之穩定做出貢獻；(二)、進一步加強雙邊貿易與投資；(三)、促進亞洲地區落後國家之發展，並解決其貧困問題；(四)、積極倡導保障人權、良善管理統治、發揚民主與法治精神；(五)、與亞洲國家建立全球性的夥伴和同盟關係，在國際舞台上共同面對全球化所帶來之挑戰，並加強自身在全球環境及安全議題上之努力；(六)、強化亞洲地區人民對於「歐洲」的印象，以增加彼此間的了解。歐亞雙方更加強在傳統、核子以及生化武器非擴散條款、高科技產品輸出限制、防範洗錢、人口販賣、合力打擊毒品走私…等等區域安全議題之政治對話。此外，1996年召開的「亞歐會議」可謂歐亞雙邊發展的高峰，隨著會議設立宗旨：「相互尊重及對等合作，開創新的夥伴關係」，歐亞雙方展開了經濟、政治與文化交流等三大領域的共同合作，以強化歐亞兩方自二次戰後冷淡的雙邊發展。[[abstract]]Ever since European countries started the colonial rule on East Asia countries in the end of the 16th century, the injustice relationship between the suzerain state and the colonized countries continue to exist. It is not until 1980s that East Asia started to build up economically which arise the “East Asian Boom,” European countries then started to develop a more considerable relationship with Asia. In 1994, EU proclaimed the “Towards a New Asia Strategy.” In addition, on September 4th of 2001, EU approved the “Europe and Asia: A Strategic Framework for Enhanced Partnerships.” According to this adoption Asian policy, the EU is supposed to work to: (1) contribute to peace and security in the region and globally through a broadening of engagement with the region; (2) further strengthen mutual trade and investment flows within the region; (3) promote the development of the less prosperous countries of the region and address the root causes of poverty; (4) contribute to the protection of human rights and to the spreading of democracy, good governance and the rule of law; (5) build global partnerships and alliances with Asian countries, in appropriate international fora, to help address both the challenges and the opportunities offered by globalization and to strengthen joint efforts on global environmental and security issues; (6) help strengthen the awareness of Europe in Asia. In addition, EU reinforce the collaboration with Asia by taking a more serious thought on issues such as global challenges on the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (nuclear, chemical, biological, ballistic missiles), Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), and particularly the fight against transnational crime, money-laundering, and narcotic drugs trafficking. Above all, the convention of “Asia-Europe Meeting”(ASEM) is the milestone of the bilateral relations. In order to expand the bond between EU and East Asia countries after WWII, ASEM eschews any “aid-based” relationship and stress on equal partnership and co-operation politically, economically, and culturally/ intellectuall
