　　关于本书 

　　厘清中欧多边主义的异同，是阐述中欧外交关系、促进中欧多边合作的前提。中欧多边外交的最大共同点是都坚决维护联合国体系和国际法，反对单边主义。就差异而言，中国强调世界上只有一个体系、一种秩序、一套规则，反对干涉内政；而欧盟则自诩为天然的多边主义行为体，倾向于规范权力，强调以规则为基础的国际秩序，协调成员国立场，具有天然的“多边-双边”双重性，并为其一体化程度所限制。中欧多边外交观的比较对于理解中西方在政治、法律叙事以及文化价值表达上的不对称具有重要意义。 　　  

　　A prerequisite for narrating the diplomatic relations with Europe and fostering China-EU multilateral cooperation is to clarify the similarities and differences of Chinese and European views of multilateralism. The greatest common denominator in China-EU multilateral diplomacy is that both resolutely uphold the United Nations (UN) system and international laws and oppose unilateralism. In terms of differences, China emphasizes that there is only one system, one order and one set of rules in the world, and opposes interference in internal affairs, whereas the EU is a self-styled natural multilateralist actor, which favors normative power, emphasizes a rules-based international order, coordinates the positions of its member states, has a natural multilateral-bilateral dual character, and is enslaved to its degree of integration. The comparison of Chinese and European views on multilateral diplomacy is of great significance for understanding the asymmetry of political and legal narratives as well as expressions of cultural value between China and the West.
