在当前的国际边疆话语体系中，不管是领土、主权、边界等硬边疆概念，还是利益边疆、战略边疆、文化边疆等软边疆理论都是西方国家创制并占据国际边疆话语体系主导权的边疆理论。随着中国的崛起与国家利益的外溢，中国迫切需要用传统与新生的边疆理论来阐释中国的和平崛起，解读并维护国家利益。然而，具有浓厚帝国思维和霸权色彩的软边疆理论，却使中国的边疆话语言说陷入了一种两难的悖论：不承认西方边疆理论话语，则中国无法与国际主流边疆话语进行对接与勾连；承认西方两极对抗下产生的软边疆话语体系，又无法解读中国的包容和合与和平崛起。中国特色、中国风格、中国气派的边疆理论建构，需要我们对既有的西式边疆话语体系进行正本清源式的梳理与凤凰涅槃式的重铸。

In the existing international borderland discourse system,such concepts as territory,sov-ereignty,boundary,interest-related borderland,strategic borderland,and cultural borderland are key terms created by Western countries.With the emergence of a peace-loving and powerful China,it ur-gently needs some borderland theories to explain its rejuvenation,and help safeguard its national in-terests.The Western borderland theories with some imperial and hegemonic color have rendered Chi-na＇s borderland discourse into an antimony,that is,if China refuses the Western borderland theories, it will be unable to communicate with the dominant borderland theories of the world;if China accepts their borderland theories,these theories are insufficient in explaining China＇s peaceful rejuvenation and openness to the whole world.Thus,the construction or reconstruction of some borderland theories with Chinese characteristics relies on a correct understanding of the nature and implications of the ex-isting Western borderland discourse system and the recreation of some related theories in China.
