美國印太戰略目標實現能力和其合作對象間的凝聚力至為相 關。本文透過建構主義觀點，認為美國挑選印太區域國家並賦予軍 事安全合作「身分」，旨在透過認同強化凝聚力，以促成印太戰略合 作。本文根據美國官方文件爬梳出美國印太戰略佈局對象，將其間的 軍事安全合作區分為「協定內容」、「聯合軍演」、「軍事援助」及 「軍事基地或駐軍」等四項指標，評估美國與這些國家間凝聚力的強 弱，以呈現美國印太戰略佈局態勢。

The United States’ ability to achieve its Indo-Pacific strategy goals is closely related to the “cohesion” among its partners. From a constructivist perspective, this paper argues that the U.S. selects Indo-Pacific countries and assigns them military security cooperation “identities” to strengthen “cohesion” through shared recognition, thereby promoting Indo-Pacific strategic cooperation. Based on official U.S. reports, this paper identifies the countries involved in the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy and categorizes military security cooperation using four indicators: “security agreements,” “military exercises,” “military assistance,” and “military bases or deployments.” By assessing the strength of “cohesion” between the U.S. and these countries, the paper aims to present the overall posture of the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategic layout.
