《里斯本条约》签署以来,欧盟新近达成的FTA呈现出“西学”美国NAFTA文本的倾向,并以FTA为媒介,将本区域的投资、人权、环境等价值“东渐”至发展中国家。欧盟在投资文本选择上的“西学东渐”策略源于其追求法律稳定性、重塑投资保护和公益管制平衡的内在需要,也有与美国保持竞存、与其进行TTIP谈判、共同参与全球贸易治理的外在需要,为中国对外谈判FTA/BIT时如何构建“中国理性”提供了启示。
After ratification of "Lisbon Treaty" , the new FTAs entered into by EU are similar to the NAFTA, which extends EU's values on investment protection, human rights, and environmental protection to the developing countries. The abandonment of Dutch Golden Rules and adoption of NAFTA-like FTAs reflects EU's needs to pursue legal certainty, rebalance the investor protection and Members' regulatory power, and converges with US policies, which offers precious lessens to China in establishing Chinese foreign investment protection ideology.
