中國數位絲綢之路與晶片導向地緣政治：臺印視角出發的批判分析研究
主持人：台印雙邊合作計畫 ICSSR-NSTC Project, 2025.1-2026.12
簡介
數位絲綢之路中國「一帶一路」倡議的一部分，包括許多數字基礎設施項目，旨在增強印度-太平洋地區的連通性和數字合作，目的在全球擴展其數位化影響力，引發印度等國家對技術依賴、安全風險和戰略競爭的擔憂。本研究結合跨學科學者，邀請來自印度和台灣的文化研究、政治科學、安全研究、媒體研究、移民研究和後殖民學者加入，一起探討中國數字絲綢之路及其對印度-太平洋地區的影響的問題，尤其是印度和台灣。本研究從四個相關的維度考察中國的數位絲綢之路和晶片地緣政治的相關問題：1）基於供應鏈的晶片地緣政治和經濟問題，考察印度和台灣半導體行業之間的合作如何減輕這些擔憂並增強印度的技術主權和韌性；2）由印度和台灣之間的“晶片”友誼引發的勞工遷移；3）網絡安全和數字基礎設施，考察中國的數字絲綢之路倡議如何改變印度的技術格局，具體表現為技術依賴和安全挑戰；4）對數位導向的新世界秩序理論的思考。
