建構主義這個新興的國際關係理論已在中國被迅速地接受和蓬勃地發展著。本文簡述建構主義在中國的發展，發現當代中國對國際關係之觀點的改變和政府持續的推動改革開放是中國具有良好研究環境的兩個主要原因。此外，還有三個有利的重要因素：(1)中國文化已是中國傳統不可分割的一部份；(2)馬克思主義提供了建構主義肥沃的土壤；(3)現實主義之外，建構主義打開了觀察真實世界的另一扇窗戶。目前，我們期望中國學者可以藉著理論的本土化，更多的個案研究和更廣泛及更平衡的人力配置來深化他們的研究。

Constructivism, a newly emerged international theory, has been quickly
accepted and prosperously developed in China. This article has briefly reviewed the development of constructivism in China and found that a change of current Chinese perception of international relations as well as the continuity of China’s reform and openness are two main reasons for a favorable research environment in China. Besides, three factors are also important: (1) Chinese culture is already existed as an inalienable part in its tradition; (2) Marxism has become a basic philosophy for social study in current China, and therefore, provided a well-cultured land for the study of constructivism; (3) constructivism has opened another window for observing this real world. At present time, we hope that Chinese scholars can further their study by the indigenization of theory, by doing
more case studies, and by a widespread and balanced laboring.
