親共港媒指控沈伯洋家族在中國遭制裁後改名撈錢,引發學者對中國介選與認知作戰的分析。
親共港媒《文匯報》、《大公報》昨天同步指控,民進黨台北市長參選人沈伯洋家族被中國制裁後,改名持續在中國「撈錢」。對此,美國聖湯瑪斯大學國際研究講座教授葉耀元認為,這顯然是中國國安部透過香港勢力介入台灣選舉,這類認知作戰將一定程度加深社會對立與兩極化,對台灣社會發展將有不良影響。
葉耀元分析,中共知道台灣社會不見得買單,因此透過港媒釋放消息,企圖增加指控的有效性與可信度,但相關研究顯示,介選訊息未必能直接扭轉選民立場,既有支持者可能察覺到介選而更加堅定,反對者則進一步強化原有偏見,至於中間選民才是介選要爭奪的受眾,卻未必接受到此類政治訊息。
葉耀元表示,與其說介選真的改變台灣民眾意識形態,更該被探討的是,這類認知作戰一定程度加深社會對立與兩極化,讓所謂親台勢力與親中勢力反目成仇,而這對台灣民主進程、整體台灣社會發展是有不良影響的。
此外,中國近期也將矛頭對準台灣友邦,祭出官員制裁與網路駭客入侵等。葉耀元直言,這類外交制裁通常「象徵意義大於實質意義」,以日前遭制裁的巴拉圭外長為例,他根本沒有赴中的必要,此舉本質上是「對外咆哮、對內宣傳」的素材,營造中國很了不起的形象轉移內部壓力。
葉耀元分析,在美中競逐下,中國試圖突破第一島鏈封鎖,手段已不限於軍事擴張,在戰略上呈現兩大模式:第一,透過攻擊美國盟友找到弱點,持續挑戰美國霸權;第二,運用「社會作戰」模式,如透過毒品造成美國及其盟友社會內部的動盪與紛亂,拖慢國家發展。整體而言,中國的意圖不只透過軍事實力、網絡對外擴張,而是用滲透的方式,持續破壞對方社會的基底。
