本文旨在讨论越南战争在冷战中的定位演变对于冷战转型的影响;尤其要着重予讨论的是,历届美国政府如何以地缘政治观点为依据对印度支那进行干预,而美国卷入印度支那战争的最初几年直至终结,多米诺骨牌理论的影响始终存在。美国高层官员认为,越战的结局将会在本地区乃至全球范围引起连锁反应,在越南的失败不仅会给它本身带来灾难,也会使得其他东南亚国家难逃厄运,甚至可能会殃及东南亚以外的国家。随着时间的推移,多米诺理论的表述也随之而发生变化,但其核心主张却是始终如一的:如果坐视越南“倒下”的话,那么,其他国家也会迅速地纷纷倒下。这一理论的一个致命弱点在于,它完全没有考虑到种种地方性或民族性因素的作用。到头来,多米诺理论由于经不住历史实际的检验而遭到“证伪”。与此相关联,美国的冷战战略以及全球冷战的结构和发展趋势也在越战结束后发生了深刻的变化。
This article aims to discuss the impact of the Vietnam War’s positioning in the Cold War on the transformation of the Cold War. In particular, it focuses on how the successive U.S. governments intervened on the basis of geopolitical views while the United States was involved in the war in Indochina The first few years until the end, the domino effect of the theory there is always. U.S. officials believe that the outcome of the Vietnam War will cause a chain reaction in the region and even in the world. The failure in Vietnam will not only bring disaster to itself, but will also make other Southeast Asian countries unfortunate and may even affect Southeast Asia s country. As time goes by, the expression of domino theory also changes, but its core proposition is consistent: if you sit back and watch Vietnam “fall,” then other countries will fall rapidly. A fatal weakness of this theory is that it completely fails to take into account the role of various local or ethnic factors. In the end, domino theory was “falsified” because it could not stand the test of history. Related to this, the U.S. cold war strategy and the structure and development trend of the global cold war also witnessed profound changes after the Vietnam War ended.
