Institutional Innovation: A Fundamental Choice For China's Economic Security In The New Structure Of International Relations In The Globalization Era

On the theoretical basis of national economic security and within the logical framework of "economic globalization-endogenous institutional risk-institutional conflicts-institutional innovations-adjustments of international relations-national economic security", this thesis probes mainly into both the institutional arrangement of our traditional public-owned economy and the institutional conflicts of economic globalization in the background of new international relations structure and China's entry into WTO in this age of globalization, and eventually comes to the conclusions as follows: The traditional public-owned economy is a endogenous institutional risk that directly harms China's national economic security. The fundamental choices to maintain national economic security are: (1) Promoting economic and political institutional innovation and thus facilitating the overall uprising of China's international competitiveness so as to construct an ego-stabilizing system in national economic security. (2) Concentrating on building China into a world economic power and a leading force of regional security so as to build an equilibrium system for national economic security.The theoretical innovations of this thesis lie in the following aspects: probing into the subject of how China maintains economic security in the new era of globalization from the angle of institutional innovation; emphasizing that the connotation of national economic security is China's economy sustainable development as well as safeguarding its economy from being harmed by both internal and external factors; presenting and demonstrating the theoretical hypothesis of institutional conflict and institutional risk that economic and political institutional arrangements colliding with the market economy are the institutional source of hazards to national economic security; suggesting to build both the internal and external national economic security system under new situation of international relations.This thesis is divided into 3 sections and there are 7 chapters in all.Section One: theoretical preparation. Summarizing national economic security theory and its latest development, pointing out the position ofnational economic security in international relations, and presenting the proposition that economic institutional arrangements directly determine national economic security.

In this section, Chapter One deals with new challenges facing national economic security and Chapter Two deals with national economic risk originates from its institutional risk.Section Three: strategic choice. Advancing some fundamental strategic solutions in order to avoid risks of national economic security as follows: first, to mind our own business, that is, promoting economic and political institutional innovation and thus facilitating the overall uprising of China's international competitiveness so as to construct an ego-stabilizing system in national economic security; second, to coordinate the international relations, that is, concentrating on building China into a world economic power and a leading force of regional security so as to build an equilibrium system for national economic security. In this section, Chapter One deals with institutional innovation is the foundationstone of national economic security, Chapter Two deals with the overall enhancement of international competitiveness is the key to national economic security, and Chapter Three d...
