Abstract

The geo-economic influence power has increasingly become an important research content for safeguarding the national security,assisting the national geo-strategic decision-making and clarifying the national geo-environment. Based on national strength,international trade,investment,aid,loans and other data and indicators,this paper constructs an analytical framework and quantitative model of geo-economic influence power from the two aspects of the influence power implementation and the influence power implementation effectiveness,and takes China,the United States,India and Pan-South Asia countries as examples to study the implementation,effectiveness and evolution of their geo-economic influence power. The findings are as follows: 1) In the aspect of influence power implementation,the sensitivities and vulnerabilities among China-the United States-India and the "Pan-South Asian" countries reveal a distinct realism,and different years have their own emphasis and choices on the influence and "construction"of Pan-South Asia countries in different years. 2) In the aspect of the influence power implementation effectiveness,the "Pan-South Asian" countries' responses and reactions to the power influenced by China,the United States and India vary,and there is a tendency of "great power balance and multi-bilateral betting" in their dependence and reliance. 3) In terms of influence power evolution,China,the United States and India have obvious differences in the construction and solidification of their respective influencing areas,the influence power change situation and patterns are complex and heterogeneous.This paper concludes with a discussion of the sources of influence power,the process of its exercise and effectiveness,and the geo-economics of its application to the world.
