早在冷战结束之初,美国学者亨廷顿就提出了“文明冲突”这一著名观点,并认为这种冲突将会成为冷战后时代重要的国际政治现象。现在,美国等西方国家与伊朗愈演愈烈的矛盾,无疑印证了亨廷顿的预言,这也是我们观察美伊关系的一个重要着眼点。 As early as the end of the Cold War, the American scholar Huntington put forward the famous concept of “clash of civilizations” and believed that such a conflict would become an important international political phenomenon in the post-Cold-War era. Now, the growing conflicts between the United States and other Western countries and Iran undoubtedly confirm Huntington’s prediction. This is also an important point for us to observe the U.S.-Iran relations.
