Abstract
Abstract: Vietnam has implemented hedging strategies in response to the geopolitical rivalry between China and the United States in the Indo-Pacific region. While the uncertainty from the dynamics of the Sino–US rivalry has been widely acknowledged, we examine how Vietnam's hedging strategy is also calibrated toward ongoing domestic political developments. We argue that while the international environment determines the overall structure of Vietnam's geopolitical hedging strategy, domestic factors, such as the success of Doi Moi, the interaction of party factions, and disagreements among public elites, influence the breadth of this strategy. Current global exigencies and internal domestic concerns require Hanoi to intelligently and delicately calibrate its interactions with great powers with little margin for error.
摘要：越南针对中国和美国在印度洋-太平洋地区的地缘政治竞争实施了对冲战略。虽然中美竞争动态带来的不确定性已得到广泛承认，但我们研究了越南的对冲战略是如何与当前的国内政治发展相适应的。我们认为，虽然国际环境决定了越南地缘政治避险战略的整体结构，但国内因素（如 Doi Moi 的成功、政党派系之间的互动以及公共精英之间的分歧）也影响着这一战略的广度。当前的全球紧急状况和国内关切要求河内明智而微妙地调整与大国的互动关系，几乎没有犯错的余地。
