    O “Chinese Dream” na estratégia de política externa da China sob o governo de Xi Jinping: percepções em textos e discursos

    TCC (graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro Sócio-Econômico. Relações Internacionais.A presente monografia possui como objetivo geral identificar a influência do “Chinese Dream” na estratégia de política externa da China sob o governo de Xi Jinping, baseando-se na interpretação de discursos. O “Chinese Dream” é um termo cunhado por Xi Jinping desde o momento em que assume a secretaria-geral do Partido Comunista da China em 2012 e a presidência de seu país em 2013. A partir da observação participante deste autor, percebe-se o impacto da formulação desse termo sobre a identidade e os interesses do povo e do Estado em questão. Observa-se que o “Chinese Dream” corresponde ao objetivo de atingir o rejuvenescimento nacional, e a partir disso emergem metas que, quando alcançadas, simbolizarão a realização desse sonho, a exemplo dos Dois Objetivos Centenários. Partindo desse entendimento, opta-se por uma abordagem Construtivista para compreender as influências dessas ideias no desenvolvimento da política externa chinesa, ressaltando-se a relevância do discurso na construção social. Revisando-se artigos de Yan Xuetong e Qin Yaqing, vê-se que discordam entre si acerca de um novo posicionamento adotado para as relações internacionais recentes: enquanto o primeiro enxerga uma política externa com mudanças consideráveis, mais assertiva e caracterizada pela estratégia do “Striving for Achievement”, o segundo também enxerga alterações, porém não concorda com Yan quanto ao rompimento da nova estratégia para com a anterior, do “Manter o Low Profile”. Visto isso, utilizar-se-á a metodologia de análise interpretativa em três textos de políticos relevantes para a condução da política externa chinesa para concluir como o “Chinese Dream” é utilizado no discurso, buscando evidências da contribuição para assertividade ou não. Por fim, as conclusões trarão que o uso desse termo se vincula a uma postura propositiva

Paratypes: 2♂♂ (MHBU), same data as holotype. Description. Male (Fig. 4C). Body black, mandibles dark brown, pronotum red, with a large dark brown marking in center of disc, elytra red, darkened at the whole length of all elytral interstices. Body densely covered with short, decumbent black pubescence, mixed with brown pubescence on head, pronotum and elytra, of which slightly longer on elytra. Head evenly narrowed behind eyes, surface densely and finely punctate; eyes strongly protruding, head width across eyes distinctly wider than anterior margin of pronotum; terminal maxillary palpomeres long-triangular, arcuate and sharp at apical half-length of inner margins; antennae nearly extending to apical one-fifth length of elytra when reclined, antennomere II shortest, slightly longer than wide at apices, III ‒ XI dorso-ventrally flattened, III ‒ X obliquely widened apically, long-triangular, III about twice as long as wide at apices, IV widest and slightly longer than III, IX longest, IV‒XI each with an oval smooth impression at apical part or middle of inner margin, XI longer than X, nearly parallel-sided and pointed at apex. Pronotum as long as wide, widest at base, anterior margin strongly rounded, lateral margins moderately diverging posteriorly, posterior margin slightly arcuate, anterior angles rounded, posterior angles rectangular, disc moderately convex at postero-lateral parts, surface semillustrous, slightly sparsely punctate than head. Elytra about 5.4 times longer than pronotum, 3.8 times longer than humeral width, which about 1.5 times wider than posterior margin of pronotum, lateral margins nearly parallel, apices tapered, elytra venations strongly developed and costate, surface matt, wrinkled, sparsely and very finely punctate. Legs slender, all tarsal claws simple. Aedeagus (Figs. 5G–I): ventral process of each paramere straight in ventral view and feebly bent dorsally in lateral view, with apex feebly expanded and rounded; dorsal plate shorter than ventral process, longitudinally ridged laterally on inner surface, with inner margin nearly straight, apical margin slightly rounded, inner apical angle subrounded, outer apical angle slightly emarginate in lateral view; laterophyse shorter than dorsal plate, with apex acutely hooked, bent dorsally and directing outwards, opposite to apical end of longitudinal ridge of dorsal plate. Female. Unknown. Body length: 10.0 ‒ 11.0 mm (10.5 mm in holotype); width: 2.1 ‒ 2.4 mm (2.2 mm in holotype). Etymology. The specific name is derived from Latin acutus (sharp) and apices (plural form of apex, tips), referring to the acute apices of elytra. Diagnosis. This species is most related to L. parahickeri nom. nov., but differs in the following characters: male with the longer antennae, elytra tapered at apices, all tarsal claws simple in male. The aedeagus has the dorsal plate of each paramere with nearly straight inner margin, subrounded inner apical angle and slightly emarginate outer apical angle in lateral view. For comparison, L. parahickeri nom. nov. has the antennae only extending to apical one-third length, elytra subrounded at apices, pro- and meso-tarsal claws each bears a digitiform tooth at base of outer claw in male, and the dorsal plate of each paramere is equipped with bisinuate inner margin, acute inner apical angle and rectangular outer apical angle in lateral view.

Male (Fig. 1D). Body black, mandibles brown, pronotum red, with two large dark brown markings on both sides which conjoint in center of disc, elytra red, darkened at the whole length of all elytral interstices. Body densely covered with short, decumbent brown pubescence. Head evenly narrowed behind eyes, surface densely and finely punctate; eyes moderately protruding, head width across eyes wider than anterior margin of pronotum; terminal maxillary palpomeres long-triangular, arcuate and sharp at apical one-third length of inner margins; antennae subfiliform, extending to elytral mid-length when reclined, antennomere II shortest, nearly as long as wide at apices, III‒VIII slightly obliquely widened apically and long-triangular, III about 2.5 times as long as wide at apices, III‒XI each with an oblong to round smooth impression at apical part of inner margin, IV widest and slightly shorter than III, VII longest, IX‒XI nearly parallel-sided, XI longer than X and pointed at apices. Pronotum about 1.2 times wider than long, widest at base, anterior margin arcuate, lateral margins moderately diverging posteriorly, posterior margin slightly arcuate, anterior angles rounded, posterior angles rectangular, disc moderately convex at postero-lateral parts, surface semillustrous, sparsely punctate than that on head. Elytra about 5.1 times longer than pronotum, 3.1 times longer than humeral width, which about 1.4 times wider than posterior margin of pronotum, lateral margins moderately diverging posteriorly, elytra venations strongly developed and costate, surface semillustrous, wrinkled, densely and very finely punctate. Legs slender, all claws simple. Aedeagus (Figs 2D–F): ventral process of each paramere nearly straight both in ventral and lateral views, with apex feebly expanded and rounded; dorsal plate nearly as long as ventral process, longitudinally ridged laterally on inner surface, with inner margin protuberant in middle, apical margin rounded and feebly emarginate at outer apical angle, which obtuse-angled in lateral view; laterophyse feebly shorter than dorsal plate, with apex acutely hooked and bent dorsally, opposite to apical end of longitudinal ridge of dorsal plate. Female (Fig. 1C).

    Lycocerus hickerimimus Y. Yang et X. Yang, nom. nov. Lycocerus sichuanus Y. Yang et X. Yang, 2014: 91. [a junior secondary homonym, preoccupied by L. sichuanus (Wittmer, 1995); Kazantsev and Brancucci, 2007: 253, originally in Athemus]. Additional material examined. China: Sichuan: 1♂ (MHBU), Anzihe, Shaoyaogou, 10.viii.2016, leg. W. Y. Zhou; 1♂ (MHBU), “ 70 km West Chengdu, Qingcheng Hou Shan mts, 1500 m, 30˚44’N, 103˚08’E, 17.vi.2005, leg. S. Murzin ”; 1♂ (MHBU), “ 70 km West Chengdu, Qingcheng Hou Shan mts, 1500 m, 30˚44’N, 103˚08’E, 8.– 14.vi.2005, leg. S. Murzin ”; 1♀ (MHBU), “ Mts ling Shan, E. Mianning, 2500–3000 m, 14.–18.vii.2009, leg. S. Murzin ”. Etymology. This specific name is derived from Latin mimus (imitate), referring to its similarity to L. hickeri. Remarks. Lycocerus sichuanus Y. Yang et X. Yang, 2014, is preoccupied by L. sichuanus (Wittmer, 1995), originally described in Athemus. When two or more names are homonyms, only the senior name, as determined by the Principle of Priority, may be used as a valid (ICZN, 4 th ed., article 52.2), so L. sichuanus (Wittmer, 1995) remains valid. A junior homonym must be rejected and replaced either by an available and potentially valid synonym or, for lack of such a name, by a new substitute name (ICZN, 4 th ed., article 60.1), therefore, L. hickerimimus nom. nov. is proposed here to replace L. sichuanus Y.
