From"observer"to"participant":Research on the transformation and dilemma of Ukraine's geopolitical roles
In the context of the global strategic game,geopolitical factors are an important ba-sis for countries to formulate security and foreign policies.It not only provides an excuse for capitalist countries to compete for geopolitical dividends,but also forces developing countries to pay high attention to and guard against risks brought by geopolitical crises.In order to explore the role of the contested countries and the dilemma of"role transformation"in the geopolitical game between great powers,we select Ukraine,which has frequent geopolitical crises,as a case study,draws on the analytical framework of"role theory",and attempts to integrate traditional geopolitical theory with"role theory".Based on the perspective of"observer"and"participant"role transformation,we adopt the comparative analysis method of"domestic politics and interna-tional politics"to compare the international community's cognition and evaluation of Ukraine's geopolitical role,clarify the time-space process of Ukraine's geopolitical role transformation,and explain the effect of Ukraine's geopolitical role transformation,to provide new theoretical cogni-tion and practical analysis for the geopolitical decision-making of developing countries.
