摘　　要：自 2 0世纪 80年代以来 ,华尔兹提出的“均势自动生成论”虽一直是西方学者考察世界政治格局的现状及发展的主要依据之一 ,但西方学者在运用这一命题的同时却始终没有对这一命题本身进行深入探讨。有鉴于此 ,本文分四部分对这一命题涉及的几个主要问题进行了详细考察。华尔兹提出的“均势自动生成论”的逻辑依据 ,实际是国际无政府状态对单元行为产生的一系列限制作用。虽然华尔兹提出的“均势自动生成论”有其合理的成分 ,但这一命题本身却存在两个重大缺陷。鉴于华尔兹提出的“均势自动生成论”在现代国际关系理论体系中的重要地位 ,因而本文在最后一部分专门探讨了这一命题蕴涵的两种政策性含义。Since the 1980s,the concept of the automatic balance of power proposed by Kenneth Waltz has been one of the theoretical foundations upon which many western scholars have based their analyses of world politics.However,although these scholars have used the theory,they have seldom investigated the proposition itself.Considering such a situation,this article,which is divided into four main parts,intends to explore in detail those theoretical issues that are relevant to the proposition.The author argues that the logic underlying the proposition is a series of limiting influences on behavior imposed by international anarchy.The author contends that although this proposition has reasonable elements,it suffers from two theoretical deficiencies.In the final section,because the concept of the automatic balance of power proposed by Kenneth Waltz holds an important position in theories of international relations,the author specifically analyzes its policy implications.
