■演講摘要：
Emotion in Knowledge Production: The “Chinese IR Theory” Debate Revisited
Abstract
The past quarter of a century has seen the emergence and evolution of an important debate on Chinese International Relations (IR) theory. To date, much of the debate has focused, among other things, on why there is no Chinese IR theory, whether it is possible for such a theory to emerge, how to build it, how it should be named, and to what extent Chinese IR theory can be said to exist today. Important as these questions are, scholars have overlooked the role of emotion in theory construction in general and in the Chinese IR theory debate in particular. Drawing from the literature on emotion in world politics, this paper highlights the neglected function of emotion in IR theory construction as opposed to the now better-understood role of emotion in international relations practice. It argues that Chinese IR scholars and theorists are also ‘affective communities’ whose emotions have been on display in the Chinese IR theory debate and have played important roles in the quest for Chinese IR theory. Addressing the questions of what those emotions are and how they affect Chinese IR theory development, the paper will illustrate that China’s IR theory quest is both stimulated and stunted by some complex and at times conflicting structures of feeling ranging from dissatisfaction and envy to frustration, anxiety, and complacency.
