Ljudska republika Kitajska v državah srednje in vzhodne Evrope z vidika Bourdieujeve sociologije in koncepta simbolne moči

Lorenčič, Severin (author), Istenič Kotar, Saša (mentor)

V magistrskem delu analiziram delovanje Ljudske republike Kitajske na območju srednje in vzhodne Evrope v sklopu sodelovanja 17 + 1 skozi prizmo Bourdieujeve sociologije in simbolične moči. LRK je pridobila simbolično moč skozi naracijo »vzpona LRK«, ki jo je postavil na pozicijo gospodarskega čudodelca. Kitajska vlada je skozi simbolično dominacijo na novo definirala regijo in ustvarila nove fizične in miselne prostore, v katerih vnaprej določa kraj in čas ekspresije akterjev. Delovanje moči je bilo vidno v sklopu medkulturnih odnosov v mreži možganskih trustov 17 + 1 in v mladinskih izmenjavah. Simbolična moč LRK je doživela svoj vrh med letoma 2012 in 2015. V naslednjih letih je zaradi pritiskov ZDA in nezadovoljstva nad rezultati sodelovanja interes začel upadati.

Abstract

This master thesis analyses the workings of People's Republic of China in Central and Eastern Europe in context of the 17 + 1 cooperation through the framework of Bourdieu’s sociology and symbolic violence. PRC acquired its symbolic power through writings on »The Rise of China« which gave it the pedigree of an »economic miracle maker«. The Chinese government through symbolic domination gave a new definition to the region of Central and Eastern Europe, created new physical, as well as cognitive spaces where the location and time of agents’ expression is designated in advance. The workings of symbolic power were visible in intercultural exchanges as is the 17 + 1 think tank network and youth cooperation. The peak of Chinese symbolic power in the region was between 2012 and 2015. Afterwards interest in the cooperation began to vain due to the USA's refocusing on the region and due to the dissatisfaction with the results of cooperation.
