碩士 / 國立中興大學 / 國際政治研究所 / 98 / Since 1990s, the comprehensive national power of China and India, especially on economy, has demonstrated a remarkable progress; therefore, ensuring the sustainable access to energy became a major concern. This trend extends the national interest including economic strength of these two nations, which also boosted the development of sea power. This has led to the competition of sea power between China and India in South Asia.
This thesis takes the concepts of security dilemma as the research approach, using the four main conceptual elements, which are “interest,” “intention,” “cognition” and “action” to analyze the fundamental reasons of causing the competition of marine power between China and India in Indian Ocean.
In the conclusion, this study finds the reasons trapping China and India into the Spiral Model of Security Dilemma. These two nations regard their own diplomatic and military activities as “defensive”in nature, and interpret the other’s actions as “offensive”. Thus, both countries take the necessary actions to counter the other’s expansion and ensure their own national security. The potential factor that can release China and India from Security Dilemma depends on some varieties, such as the future leadership transition at home, and the perception of leaders from hegemonic powers outside the region.
