China: A Participant in the Liberal International Order, Not a Threat
Wang Huiyao, Director of Center for China and Globalization (CCG)
[Editor's Note] As a defender of the existing international order and a contributor to global development, China is playing an increasingly important role in international aff airs. It has become an important task at present to make better use of the mainstream international public opinion field so as to reduce the world's misunderstanding of China and to promote China's identity as an active contributor. As a think tank dedicated to promoting exchanges between China and foreign countries, the Center for China and Globalization (CCG) recently conducted a series of “track Ⅱ diplomacy" activities in the United States. At the same time, it participated in the Munk Debates, a world-renowned international public debate held in Canada, in an eff ort to objectively and rationally analyze and explain China to the world audience, especially the western public, on the mainstream western communication platform.
Founded in 2008, the Munk Debate chose controversial issues of global concern as topics for debate. In the form of American debate, the world's top scholars related to the topic area were invited as two opposing groups of debaters. This year's debate focused on the question "Does China pose a threat to the liberal world order?” The affi rmative party included former US National Security Advisor HR McMaster and Michael Pillsbury,Director for Chinese Strategy, Hudson Institute,who held the view that "China will threaten the liberal international order"; CCG Chairman Dr.Wang Huiyao, and Kishore Mahbubani, the former rotating President of the UN Security Council and former President of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, as the opposing party, held the view that"China will not threaten the liberal international order." At a time of Sino-US trade frictions and strained Sino-Canada relations, we fought it out by refuting the "China Threat Theory" with facts and won the debate. Thus, we have conveyed China's voice to the world and strengthened people's trust and understanding for China. The main points of Dr. Wang Huiyao's in the debate are now summarized as follows:
China benef its from and contributes to the world.
China's development has benefited from the world trade system and from all countries in the world. Now is the time for China to pay back.In fact, China has brought many benefits to the development of other countries.
First of all, China is praised by the United Nations as "a key factor and a key force in peacekeeping operations". China has participated in UN peacekeeping operations for 29 years. As the largest UN peacekeeping troop contributor,China's budget share for UN peacekeepers has also increased from 3% in 2013 to more than 10% in 2018. Moreover, China's poverty alleviation policy has also made a significant contribution to the UN's 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. From the end of 1978 to the end of 2017, China contributed more than 70% to the global poverty reduction. The poverty reduction model and the targeted poverty alleviation policy adopted are of great significance to the world's war against poverty.
周家庄古村占地面积约3ha,东西长约1km,村落兴盛时建有130余处宅院,420余间石碹窑洞,如今保存较为完整的院落100余个,窑洞230余间,仍保持较好的传统风貌,真实地反映了历史信息,生动地还原了原始生活场景。
What's more, the WTO reviews China's"development status" every year. If China is already a developed country instead of a developing one,the WTO reform and restructuring should be taken into consideration instead of directly opposing China on the grounds of forced technology transfer.Compulsory technology transfer has become a cliché in recent years, but for China, the transnational development of science and technology conforms to international law and the international order.Moreover, the Foreign Investment Law passed in March this year is a strict control on misconducts like stealing international assets and forcing technology transfer. China and the United States, including other countries, should resolve the doubts and differences arising from international cooperation through consultation.
弹幕(Barrage)顾名思义是子弹多而形成的幕布,在军事上是指大量密集的炮火攻击。在弹幕视频中指的是大量的评论在屏幕上划过,像是幕布一样。最早也是最著名的弹幕网站是日本的Niconico动画网站,其最大特点是实时弹幕发送,发送后3s就显示在屏幕上,使得观众有一起参与的感觉,取得了空前成功。国内先引进弹幕技术的是Acfun弹幕视频网和Bilibili动漫网站,随后主流视频网站如土豆、爱奇艺和优酷等也相继引入弹幕技术。这种实时交流,产生共鸣的体验感,越来越受到各个领域的广泛关注。
Last year, China established the Immigration Administration and issued 23,000 green cards the year alone. All this proves that both human rights and democracy are progressing well and have become an important factor in attracting outstanding talents. China's opening-up endeavor has entered a new stage. With globalization facing new challenges today, when we further deepen and expand the opening up to the outside world, strengthen international cooperation and participate in globalization, at the same time we need to safeguard national security and interests.To do this, the specific national condition is one of the considerations that cannot be ignored.While making great progress, China is still learning and developing.China's peaceful and stable development plays an important role in supporting, strengthening and improving the liberal international order and is also in the interests of China and other countries in the world.
China is a participant in the liberal international order who applies what he has learned, not a threat.In the 40 to 50 years after World War II, it was precisely because of the existing international order that no new signs of world war have appeared.Therefore, we should maintain and safeguard this order. Since ancient times, China has had an"inclusive" cultural tradition. Deng Xiaoping's easy-to-understand "black cat and white cat"metaphor also emphasizes China's respect and recognition of different cultures and traditions as well as China's ability to learn from excellent practice.
has offered a blueprint for global development and proposed solutions. As a multilateral infrastructure construction project, the "Belt and Road Initiative"has greatly promoted the infrastructure and economic development of the countries along the route through regional cooperation, and has also attracted a large amount of investment to them. At present, with the involvement of the G7 and G20 countries, the principles of the "Belt and Road Initiative" framework will be gradually improved and will bring more benefits to the B&R countries.
The specific national conditions determine China's human rights development and openness of society. Can the status quo of human rights in China be described as a matter of democracy and despotism? The answer is undoubtedly no. With a large population, a vast territory and numerous nationalities, China is in a very special and complicated position. The remarkable achievements in China's poverty reduction, the maturing market economy and the popularization of electronic equipment over the past 40 years have all proved that China not only pays great attention to human rights and other values, but also implements these basic principles through practical actions.
由图3可知,当训练样本大小为3000时,准确率ACC(Accuracy)、查准率P(Precision)、F1值皆达到最大值,且ROC曲线下面积AUC(Area Under Curve)达到最大值。AUC可用于评价模型对客户是否逾期的区分能力,AUC值越大,模型的区分能力、泛化性能越强。为保证良好的模型训练效果,同时减少训练成本,本文确定训练样集大小为3000。在实证研究中从训练集分层随机抽取3000样本对SVM模型进行训练,得到训练的模型,并用测试集进行检验,输出结果,各项指标如表3所示,图5为ROC曲线图。
Secondly, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank(AIIB) supported by China has a positive impact on strengthening the free international order. So far,AIIB has approved 39 projects worth 7.94 billion US dollars, aiming at providing strong support for the Asian Community of Common Destiny and diversifying regional cooperation agencies promoting the reform of the liberal international order. In addition, the proposal and implementation of the "Belt and Road Initiative" is also one of the most typical examples. Although this Initiative is still being improved, China is the only country that
China has always been opening and developing in a rule-following, peaceful and friendly manner.Some think tank scholars in the United States questioned "China's rejection of the world trade mechanism and its domination of the economy by the government over the market mechanism respected by the United States". In fact, China's development since its accession to the WTO has been based on adhering to national principles,carrying out economic reforms according to its national conditions, and accepting and learning from the world trade system. Therefore, it is undeniable that China has conformed to the WTO system. In the past 40 years, China's economy has grown by leaps and bounds, making it one of the world's two largest economies and also the world's largest market today, which provides other countries with a huge international trade market. It can be said that China is an excellent opportunity for the liberal international system.
The international situation is changing day by day,but globalization has always been the general trend that has not changed. Today, when globalization is entering a new stage, no country is able to manage the threat of global problems alone. China stands together with the rest of the world. In this new era of coexistence and common development of all, expanding exchanges and cooperation is the shared choice for all countries including China.Therefore, China's development is not a threat, but contribution to common progress.
Recently, the United States has repeatedly restricted the development of Huawei's 5G technology in the country. It issued a "90-day Temporary General License" and even interfered with Huawei's cooperation with European countries. This has also led to tense Sino-US economic and trade relations again. However, the development and promotion of China's 5G technology and related cross-border cooperation benefit all countries worldwide. China,the United States and all other countries should commit themselves to international cooperation in the common interest.
During the 40 years of reform and opening up,China has been learning and absorbing successful experience in the process of participating in globalization. It fulfills the responsibilities of a permanent member of the UN Security Council by actively participating in UN peacekeeping operations; it opens its market wider by issuing a new Foreign Investment Law to create an even high-quality environment for foreign investment;it deepens multilateral economic and trade cooperation by promoting the "Belt and Road Initiative"--China's development in various fields is depicting the image of an inclusive, peaceful and friendly country. In the new era of globalization,the international order and the development of international organizations are also facing new challenges and opportunities. China will continue to play an important role by facilitating the reform of international order with other countries. At the same time, it will also aim to jointly build a just and peaceful international community and make greater contribution to strengthening the existing international mechanisms.
