preface
we are in an era of drastic fluctuations, radical adjustments, and fast development. along with increasingly closer economic ties among different countries around the world are rising populism and unilateralism, as well as trade frictions exacerbating complexities and uncertainties of the global landscape. non-traditional security issues including cli- mate change, the ecological environment, energy security and cyberspace warfare demand immediate solutions, and global governance is suffering from fragmentation.
china is a beneficiary of globalization. its reform and opening-up over the last four decades offer the world a panoramic view of china’s rapid development. as china grad- ually fits in the world, the world is learning about china. more and more foreign experts and scholars h**e devoted themselves to the study of china, and china has emerged as a member and partner of many governmental and non-governmental international organi- zations.
as both the world politics and economy enter a historical stage of “new normal,” china, while opening itself up to the outside world in a higher level, is devoting itself to world peace and development. continuing to act as a responsible major country, china is participating in global governance in an active and constructive manner, providing chi-nese wisdom to the creation of global public goods both in theory and in practice, and **contributions to adjusting and reshaping international order and reforming and optimizing the global governance system.
however, misunderstanding of china is still prevalent in the international commu- nity and the “china threat” is frequently seen in news reports by foreign media outlets. in this two-way interaction, information asymmetry and lack of communication channels still prevent china and the world from knowing each other. therefore, creating platforms for international exchanges and expanding channels for cross-border cooperation are important ways for the world to further understand china and for china to better integrate into globalization. with them, the international community will hear more “chinese voices,” and more “world voices” will be heard by china.
this is the historical responsibility of the center for china & globalization (ccg). since its establishment in 2008, the ccg has been dedicated to research on globalization, global governance, international relations, and globalization of talent and businesses, and emerged as a prestigious think tank capable of offering insightful observations on the trends of global politics and economy, *suggestions to decision-makers, and exerting influence on social opinions. on important international agendas, the ccg left the world with its insightful research analysis and policy suggestions, fulfilling its social responsibilities of providing a platform for communication and **suggestions on government policy **
over recent years, the ccg has invited many experts with global influence from the government, industry, and academic circles, who g**e keynote speeches on global trends and heatedly discussed issues. in this way, the ccg has drawn widespread attention of the elite and mainstream media at home and abroad. this book is a collection of speeches and remarks at the ccg and forums hosted by ccg by dozens of leading figures in political,business, and academic circles at home and abroad. of the experts, some h**e dedicated themselves to the study of chinese politics and international relations for decades, some are veteran diplomats who know a lot about international politics, some are business leaders who steer the business world and lead enterprises to go global, and some are representatives from international organizations, who take delight in working for the well-being of all mankind. chinese and foreign experts shared their insightful and far-sighted ideas on the future of globalization, challenges faced by the world order and global governance, china’s relations with the world against the backdrop of new globalization, and the polit- ical landscape of china, asia and the world and future trends. the ideas will help clear up the fog of confusion about the future of globalization.
the book has five parts.
the first part revolves around china and the world in the new era, and features remarks by nicholas rosellini, former un resident coordinator in china, roza otunbayeva, former president of the kyrgyz republic, chee hong tat, senior minister of state for finance and transport of singapore, simon birmingham, former minister for trade, tourism and investment, ziad bahaa-eldin, former deputy prime minister of egypt, and wang jisi, president of peking university’s institute of international and strategic studies. they shed light on how countries should get along with each other from the perspective of the un-china-asia relations, china-america-europe dynamics, china-australia relations, and china-africa relations, what role china can play in a world of complexity and how to advance cooperation in the future.
the second part is unfolded under the theme of fragmentation of global governance. thomas l. friedman, author of the world is flat, pascal lamy, former director-general of the world trade organization (wto), peter maurer, former president of the international committee of the red cross, and he yafei, former vice minister of foreign affairs
of china spoke on the reform of wto, g20, the comprehensive and progressive agree- ment for trans-pacific partnership, the asian infrastructure investment bank and the belt and road initiative. they also offered suggestions on reforming the unreasonable elements existing in the global governance system and in globalization.
the third part sets focus on the way forward. long yongtu, former vice minister of foreign economic cooperation and trade, chen deming, former minister of commerce, chen jian, former minister of commerce, fu chengyu, former chairman of china national offshore oil corporation and sinopec group, zheng yongnian, an internationally renowned scholar, and antony leung, former financial secretary of the hong kong special administrative region, talked about how china can extensively involve itself in globalization while advancing reform and opening-up, and how the country can play a greater constructive role in improving global governance.
the fourth part highlights entrepreneurship. business leaders and experts, including cao dewang, chairman of fuyao group, marvin hung, vice chairman of hung’s group, wang shi, founder of vanke, stan shih, founder of acer group, huang yasheng, associate dean of the sloan school of management, massachusetts institute of technology, and barbara thomas judge, former uk business ambassador, offers suggestions for chinese businesses to shape their corporate culture, innovate their organizational management and go global based on their extensive experience in practice.
the fifth part focuses on talent and education. condoleezza rice, former secretary of state of the united states, liang jianzhang, founder of ctrip, vincent price, the 10th president of duke university, peter diamandis, co-founder of the singularity university, and liu hong, associate vice president of nanyang technology university in singapore among other leading figures at home and abroad shared their views on entrepreneurship education and competitiveness of international talent.
insights of these leading figures in their respective sector are enlightening. we hope you could also notch up some gains in reading the book. the ccg will continue serving as a platform for international academic communication and exchange of thoughts and share the insights and wisdom with all of our readers.
