自 90 年代中期以來，學界對於恐怖主義的研究正日益深化，反恐措施也推陳出新。不過，恐怖主義攻擊卻未因此減少，反而從過去盛行的中東地區和發展中國家蔓延到威權的前蘇聯各國以及已開發國家。參與者也從過去的反殖民建國訴求者，擴大為宗教和其他激進運動的獻身者;手段上更普遍地採取自殺攻擊，而不在乎組織形象聲名狼藉和人員的損失。似乎強大的國家，其安全與反擊措施越嚴厲，越激發攻擊者的鬥志。這種「越挫越奮」的異常現象，對傳統的國關理論構成了不小的挑戰。 ..

National security is traditionally comprehended in terms of the rationalist approach, of which the physical boundaries and the static “Self” of nation states are taken for granted. The concept of “security dilemma” is accordingly understood as the conflicting tendency between nations in the process of defense build-up. However, this article argues that another type of “security dilemma” should not be ignored: the more the units increase its physical capabilities, the less secure they are, d..

在過去的二十年以來，理論辯論成為寬廣的國際關係理論領域中日益顯著的部份。如果我們需要使用一組可信而適當的理論，來回答關於在特定條件下國際關係理論分歧的向題，則現有理論無法提供一個滿意的答案。 本文嘗試提出一個整體的觀點，來理解國際關係中的研究途徑與理論概念現存的分歧情形。基此目的，本研究的目標，在於藉由統攝概念的運動，以建立 一個國際關係理論分歧現象的分析架構，來理解那些主理論分歧的現象。 本文的討論並未解決那些現存理論分歧的問題，只是嘗試說明一個理論的爭議將會如何予以解..

Over the last 20 years, theoretical debates have become an increasingly conspicuous part in the broader field of international Relations Theory. If we are in need of an adequate theory that provides a set of plausible and testable answers to questions about theoretical diversity under specified conditions, the existing theory, in term, does not suffice. This paper attempts to provide a comprehensive perspective to understand the existing diversity of research approaches and theoretical concepts of international relations. To this end, t..

國際關係理論逐漸呈現以理論綜合的方式進行國際關係研究，國際規範研究是其中的重要議題之一，本文嘗試從國際規範的生命週期開始，運用「國際規範社群下的策略行動」(strategic actions in a international norm community)，以理性主義(策略行為)與建構主義(規範行為)理論綜合的策略與研究途徑分析美國「防止擴散安全提議」，探索此國際規範的興起、擴展、內化與侵蝕階段時期中，不同國家的行為動機，藉以呈現說明理論綜合能提供不同面向的相互補充解釋。

The international norm is one of the major topics in international relations research, of which synthesized approach is gradually becoming a trend. This paper attempts to adopt Frank Schimmelfennig's approach- the strategic actions in an international norm community- to synthesize the theories of rationalism and constructivism in the international norm circle. As the case, the Proliferation Security Initiative will be analyzed through different phases of emergence of the life circle-cascade, diffusion, internalization, and erosion- to u..
