摘　　要：自由贸易协定建设是中国扩大对外开放,深化与世界互动的重要举措。文章选取2000—2018年全球134个国家和地区的面板数据,基于马克思国际价值理论构建各国(地区)与中国的国际不平等交换程度指数,继而检验与中国签署自由贸易协定对国际不平等交换的影响效应。结果表明,与中国签署自由贸易协定能显著降低其与中国之间的国际不平等交换程度,即相比于没有与中国签署自由贸易协定的国家(地区),与中国签署自由贸易协定的国家(地区)和中国之间的国际不平等交换程度减少了23.07%,此效应主要体现在单位价值商品所包含劳动时间低于中国的国家(地区)上。究其机制,该效应源于与中国签署自由贸易协定能够显著提高该国(地区)与中国的贸易规模,减少该国(地区)与中国进出口商品种类的差异。进一步将上述效应与美国、日本、巴西、俄罗斯进行对比后发现,自由贸易协定对国际不平等交换程度的缓解效应并不具有普遍性,因国家(地区)而异,与中国签署自由贸易协定的缓解效应大于其他四个国家。文章的研究结论有效地反驳了“中国威胁论”“中国新殖民主义论”等观点。As the world is undergoing the greatest changes in a century,China needs to work with other countries to explore a broader space for cooperation and deepen cooperation with each other.To this end,China actively promotes the construction of free trade agreements.However,the so-called“China Threat Theory”and“China’s Neo-colonialism Theory”have been widely heard.Based on Marx’s international axiology,this paper selects the panel data of 134 countries or regions in the world from 2000 to 2018 and builds an index of international unequal exchange between countries and China,to test the impact of signing free trade agreements with China on international unequal exchange.Then,compared with the United States,Japan,Brazil and Russia,this paper refutes the above-mentioned adverse remarks against China.The results show that the signing of free trade agreements with China significantly reduces the degree of international unequal exchange with China.Specifically,compared to countries or regions that have not signed free trade agreements with China,the index of international unequal exchange between countries or regions that have signed free trade agreements with China has decreased by 23.07%.This effect is mainly reflected in countries that have less labor time per unit value commodity than China.The result is still robust after changing the measurement method of core variables,adopting weak endogenous samples,and conducting the parallel trend test and placebo test.In terms of the mechanism,this effect is due to the fact that signing free trade agreements with China can significantly improve the trade scale between the country and China,and reduce the difference in the types of import and export goods between the country and China.Further,this paper compares the effect of China with that of the United States,Japan,Brazil and Russia,and finds that the effect of free trade agreements on alleviating the degree of international unequal exchange is not universal and varies from country to country.The effect of signing
