本文的主要目的在瞭解台灣學者如何研究中國的多邊外交，研究成果展現了哪些特色，以及與國際學術界研究此一議題的連結。有關台灣學者研究成果收錄的範疇，則主要以2012年之後的著作為主。本文首先就中國官方及學術界，以及國際學術社群，針對中國多邊外交概念及理論架構的研究，以及政策與執行層面的分析，作一整理爬梳。接下來則探討台灣學者對中國多邊外交的總體性研究，作出了何種貢獻，其與國際關係中多邊外交分析傳統的關聯性如何。此外，本文也針對中國多邊外交的個案，探討台灣學者研究成果與國際學術界研究取向之異同。選擇的案例則以中國與東協的關係、亞投行，以及一帶一路為主。本文最後則從中國多邊外交的研究出發，提出未來研究議題與方向的建議，以期對未來的研究發展貢獻綿薄之力。

The purposes of this study are to understand the approaches adopted by the Taiwanese scholars to research on China’s multilateral diplomacy, major characteristics of research results, and the linkages with the international academic society. The scope of analysis is limited to research publications after 2012. This paper first explores major theoretical concepts adopted by international and mainland Chinese academics on China’s multilateral diplomacy, followed by the analysis of research outputs on policy implementation and practices. Then the authors will analyze theoretical and policy linkages between Taiwanese scholars and international academic societies on the macro aspects of Chinese multilateralism. The fourth part of this paper will utilize cases such as ASEAN , AIIB, and BRI to demonstrate the major research findings of Taiwanese scholars on the micro aspects of Chinese multilateralism. The concluding remarks provide suggestions for future research agenda for Taiwanese academic society on China’s multilateral diplomacy.
