有关中国将取代美国成为亚洲贸易政策霸主——包括通过拟议中的《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》(Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership,简称RCEP)——的讨论往往甚嚣尘上。这类讨论忽视了一个事实:正如RCEP有限的内容所表明的那样,中国仅对降低货物关税来帮助本国出口商有兴趣。由日本来牵头协定,再纳入澳大利亚和新西兰等发达经济体,至少会解决一些与现代商业(包括服务业和监管)相关的复杂得多的问题。
As for the US, it should be careful that its withdrawal from the TPP does not leave it isolated and allow others to usurp its role. Access to the US market is still a powerful lure, but if Tokyo can put together meaningful deals in the region it will feel less compelled to sign a bilateral with the US. In the meantime, a deal between Japan and the EU is well advanced, and European regulations in any case have a way of creeping into trading partners’ economies even without a formal trade deal.
至于美国,它应当心不要因为退出TPP而导致自己受到孤立,并且应该允许其他国家取代它的职责。进入美国市场仍然具有强大的吸引力,但如果日本能够在亚太地区达成一些重要协定,它会觉得与美国签订双边协议不再那么迫切。与此同时,日本和欧盟之间的协议进展顺利,反正欧洲的监管总有办法在不签订正式贸易协议的情况下悄悄进入贸易伙伴的经济内。
