During the opening ceremony and keynote report stage of the forum, Researcher Huang Baoyin, Secretary of the Party Committee of the w88 casino, delivered an opening speech and extended a warm welcome to the guests on behalf of the conference organizers. Three experts, including Major General Professor Tang Yongsheng of the National Security College of the National Defense University, Researcher Li Xiangyang, Director of the Institute of Asia-Pacific and Global Strategy, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, and Researcher Sun Zhuangzhi, Director of the Institute of Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, gave keynote speeches. The opening ceremony and keynote report were hosted by Dai Changzheng, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations/National Security and Governance Research Institute, Director of the Department of Political Science, and Huiyuan Distinguished Professor of the w88 casino.
Secretary Huang Baoyin pointed out that at present, the world's major changes unseen in a century are accelerating and intertwined with the overall strategy of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, intertwined with each other, and influenced each other. During the Boao Forum for Asia in April 2022, General Secretary Xi Jinping proposed the global security initiative for the first time, advocating adhering to a common, comprehensive, cooperative, and sustainable security concept. Since its inception, China has joined hands with the international community to actively implement the global security initiative and play a constructive role in resolving regional hotspot issues and maintaining the international security order. The new challenges under the great changes have led major-country diplomacy with Chinese characteristics onto a new journey, and have also given new responsibilities and missions to the academic community. I look forward to the experts and scholars attending the meeting speaking out freely, proposing insights and contributing academic wisdom. I also sincerely thank all guests for attending the meeting. I sincerely hope that all experts will continue to support the development of the political science discipline and the construction of the national security discipline of the University of International w88.
In the keynote report, Major General Professor Tang Yongsheng of the National Security College of the National Defense University pointed out that the profound changes in the world situation in recent years are not only reflected in changes in the power structure, but more importantly, the nature of international relations has shown many new characteristics. The geographical environment and geo-relationships in Asia are complex, and various problems and contradictions are intertwined. There is still no mature security architecture. At this stage, we should regard Asia as an important strategic basis for us to consolidate peripheral security. Researcher Li Xiangyang, director of the Institute of Asia-Pacific and Global Strategy of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that the securitization of international economic cooperation is cyclical. From the perspective of endogenous factors, it is reflected in technological progress and unequal income distribution, while from the perspective of exogenous factors, it is reflected in the ideology brought about by great power competition, the new crown epidemic, the Russia-Ukraine war, etc. Now that globalization has entered a trough and securitization has reached a peak, China must correctly understand the relationship between development and security, use institutional openness to offset securitization, and reshape the global value chain. Researcher Sun Zhuangzhi, director of the Institute of Russian, Eastern European and Central Asian Studies at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, emphasized that some of the conflicts in Eurasia after the collapse of the Soviet Union were related to the sequelae of the Soviet Union's collapse. Now that the United States is encircling and suppressing Russia, it is also accelerating fierce competition with China and constantly creating new conflict traps. China should actively respond with the help of the China-Central Asia Cooperation Mechanism and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and steadily deal with various changes.
In the discussion session, experts and scholars had in-depth discussions and full exchanges on topics such as the global security governance pattern, international security order, Sino-US strategic competition, the security architecture of Northeast and Southeast Asia, and digital intelligence analysis of international security. There were three sessions in the morning and afternoon. The sub-forums were chaired by Professor Wei Ling, Secretary of the Party Committee of the w88 casino of International Relations at the w88 casino, Professor Wang Bo, Dean of the w88 casino of International Development and Cooperation at the w88 casino, and Chen Xulong, Professor of the w88 casino of International Relations at the w88 casino/Executive Vice President of the Institute of National Security and Governance.
In the discussion of sub-forum 1, Professor Wu Zhicheng, deputy director of the Institute of International Strategy of the Central Party w88 casino (National w88 casino of Administration), believed that global security challenges have increased under the great changes unseen in a century, and can be solved from four aspects: common security concept, effective security system, security leadership and the balance of security development. Professor Han Zhaoying, Director of the Library of Nankai University/Zhou Enlai w88 casino of Government, pointed out that key core technologies are the most direct driving force in shaping previous changes in the international order. Therefore, this round of technological competition among major powers will also have a profound impact on the subsequent transformation of the international order. Professor Wang Yong, director of the Center for American Studies at Peking University/Professor of w88 casino of International Relations, believes that strategic competition between China and the United States is the main axis of the current international changes, and that strategic competition between China and the United States may directly and indirectly trigger conflicts in other regions. Professor Liu Xuelian from the w88 casino of Administration of Jilin University shared her thoughts on the changes in East Asia's security structure from the perspective of three security models. China can continue to implement the multilateral security model, strengthen security cooperation between China and ASEAN, and strengthen China's influence in ASEAN's security structure. Professor Liu Changming, Dean of the w88 casino of Northeast Asia at Shandong University, analyzed the new trend of the security structure in Northeast Asia and pointed out that changes in regional structure are an important cause of regional turmoil. Currently, there are three obvious changes in the structure of Northeast Asia: geopolitics, geo-economics and geo-cognition. Professor Fan Hongwei of the Nanyang Institute of Xiamen University analyzed the military coup and the new security situation in Myanmar, emphasizing that changes in Myanmar's security situation have brought new challenges to China and neighboring countries in maintaining border security, border management, and drug smuggling.
In the discussion of sub-forum 2, Professor Liu Zhenye, deputy director of the Institute of Globalization and Global Issues at China University of Political Science and Law, believed that the world entering a period of turbulent change is a new judgment and new positioning made by General Secretary Xi. This "change" is reflected in changes in China, changes in the United States, changes in global governance platforms, changes in geopolitics, changes in technology, etc. Professor Hu Zongshan, Dean of the w88 casino of Politics and International Relations of Central China Normal University, shared the topic of "Difficulty Constraint Structure and the Philosophy of Great Power Competition". He believed that great power competition is neither a comprehensive occupation nor a subversion of the power of a great power, but a struggle for independence. Professor Lu Guangsheng, Dean of the Institute of International Relations/Regional Country Studies at Yunnan University, analyzed the new trends and impacts of the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy and believed that the U.S. Indo-Pacific strategy has formed a relatively complete system of competition with China. Generally speaking, these contents are reflected in various fields of politics, economy, and security. Professor Ju Hailong, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations/Overseas Chinese Research Institute of Jinan University, introduced the big data analysis of international discourse on the Philippines' South China Sea policy, and shared his process and experience in promoting big data analysis of international discourse on issues related to the South China Sea. Professor Liu Feng, deputy dean of the w88 casino of Social Sciences at Tsinghua University, believes that the current territorial arrangements at the global level are relatively stable, so the Russia-Ukraine conflict will not pose a fundamental challenge or impact to the entire international security order.
In the discussion of the third sub-forum, Professor Fang Changping from the w88 casino of International Relations of Renmin University of China believed that in recent years, the world structure view systematically expounded by General Secretary Xi Jinping is inherited from Comrade Deng Xiaoping’s world structure view, and is also combined with the development of the times. Professor Xie Tao, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations at Beijing Foreign Studies University, pointed out that we should fully understand the general trend of the world "from the end of history to the return of history." In the future, core civilized countries represented by China, Russia, India, Turkey (CRIT), etc. will be the most important actors in shaping the world order. Professor Zhao Kejin, deputy director of the Institute for Global Common Development at Tsinghua University, believes that in theory, a middle zone theory should be proposed. The middle zone at this stage has three main aspects: global governance, global periphery, and global South. Researcher Guo Yanjun, dean of the w88 casino of National Security of China Foreign Affairs University, pointed out that there will be three processes in the future reform and reorganization of the international order: the alliance process, the "camp" process, and the partnership process jointly promoted by China and the majority of developing countries. Dong Qingling, a professor at the w88 casino of International Relations at the w88 casino/director of the National Security Computing Laboratory, believes that the current international political research has entered the fourth paradigm era. For this purpose, four platforms have been constructed: the first data monitoring system; the second open source computing platform; the third academic navigation, which integrates more than 20 million data entries; and the fourth product matrix. Professor Zhao Yang from the w88 casino of International Relations at the w88 casino believes that using the global security concept to build a community with a shared future for Northeast Asia is mainly reflected in three paths: first, shaping the emotional ties between China and Northeast Asian countries; second, building a regional security mechanism; third, China exerts its responsibility as a major power to provide security public goods.
At the closing ceremony of the forum, Dai Changzheng, Dean of the w88 casino of International Relations/National Security and Governance Research Institute of the w88 casino, Director of the Department of Political Science, and Distinguished Professor of Huiyuan, made a concluding speech and expressed his gratitude to the experts and scholars who came from afar to gather in Huiyuan to contribute their insights. Expressing his gratitude, he said that the UIBE International Political and Economic High-end Forum has been organized for seven times and will continue to be held in the future. He asked academic colleagues to continue to support the development of the w88 casino of International Relations and the Institute of National Security of the w88 casino, and jointly promote the discipline construction of political science with Chinese characteristics and national security.
