The rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020 has impacted the politics, economy and society of countries around the world. The public health diplomacy system through which developed countries in Europe and America used to provide vertical one-way assistance to developing countries faces huge challenges. How emerging economies can cooperate to fight the pandemic on the basis of mutual trust and mutual benefit has become an urgent issue. In this paper, we examine the impact of political mutual trust on the effectiveness of pandemic prevention and control from the perspective of establishing strategic partnerships between emerging economies. Furthermore, taking into account the huge differences between emerging economies, this paper explores institutional distance, cultural distance, and geographical distance-the adjustment effect of the control effect. Studies have shown that the improvement of political mutual trust is conducive to the formation of a community of shared futures between countries and has a positive effect on curbing the spread of the pandemic. The increase of the three-dimensional distance of institutions, culture, and geography will weaken the effect of establishing strategic partners for pandemic prevention and control. This paper explores a new model of horizontal international cooperation among emerging economies, and provides a reference for emerging economies to deal with common globalization issues in the future.
2020 年初，COVID-19 疫情的迅速蔓延影响了世界各国的政治、经济和社会。欧美发达国家曾经通过公共卫生外交系统向发展中国家提供垂直单向援助，而这一系统正面临着巨大的挑战。新兴经济体如何在互信互利的基础上合作抗击疫情，已成为当务之急。本文从新兴经济体建立战略伙伴关系的角度，考察了政治互信对疫情防控效果的影响。此外，考虑到新兴经济体之间的巨大差异，本文探讨了制度距离、文化距离和地理距离——控制效果的调节效应。研究表明，政治互信的提高有利于国家之间形成命运共同体，对遏制疫情蔓延具有积极作用。制度、文化和地理的三维距离的增加，将削弱建立疫情防控战略伙伴关系的效果。本文探索了新兴经济体之间横向国际合作的新模式，为新兴经济体未来应对共同的全球化问题提供了参考。
