自2004年亚洲太平洋经济合作组织(以下简称“亚太经合组织”,APEC)工商咨询理事会提出亚太自由贸易区(以下简称“亚太自贸区”,FTAAP)的倡议以来,对亚太自贸区的研究与规划逐渐进入亚太经合组织的议事日程,受到越来越多的关注,并专门通过了一些政策文件。2014年亚太经合组织北京领导人非正式会议对建设亚太自贸区提出了具体的路线图,为今后有关亚太自贸区的研究和落实进程提供了行动计划框架。从目前来看,亚太自贸区建设主要有四种政策途径:促进亚太经合组织机制,单独依赖区域全面经济伙伴关系(RCEP)或跨太平洋伙伴关系协定(TPP),整合RCEP与TPP,实现茂物目标。但上述四种政策途径都面临着相当大的挑战,甚至会出现FTAAP、TPP和RCEP共同存在的可能。从趋势上看,FTAAP建设正融入亚太经合组织的议程讨论和议题落实的过程中,并随之不断推进而进入更具体的政策实践中。
The idea of Free Trade Area for Asia-Pacific (FTAAP) was originally proposed by the APEC Business Advisory Council in 2004. Since then,researches and planning on the FTAAP has been listed into the agendas of APEC and attracted more and more attentions. The APEC conferences have also passed some policy documents on this issue. The 2014 APEC Beijing Summit came up with a more specific roadmap on how to construct the FTAAP,which may provide a framework of action plans for the researches,negotiations,and implementations of FTAAP. Currently,there are four paths of policymaking to build this FTAAP:promoting the existing mechanism of APEC,solely depending on RCEP and TPP,integrating the RCEP and TPP,and realizing the Bogor Goals. However,these four paths are all confronted with big challenges. There is even a possibility that FTAAP,TPP,and RCEP may coexist with one another. The present situations reveal that there is a trend that FTAAP construction is being gradually integrated into the agenda-settings and issue implementations of the APEC system. It will be carried forward and brought into more specific policy practices in future.
