How to face global problems and their influence on world relations

The so-called global problems refer to the serious problems facing the contemporary international community that transcend national and regional boundaries and are related to the survival and development of all mankind, such as: war and peace, North-South relations, ecological imbalance, environmental pollution, population explosion, resource shortage, international terrorism, transnational crime, and crisis of faith. These problems include the following characteristics: first, global. Second, comprehensiveness. Third, it is challenging. There are three conditions to determine whether it is a global problem: first, whether it is a capitalist country or a socialist country, an economically developed country or an underdeveloped country, there are common problems; Second, if this problem is not solved, it will seriously hinder the global social and economic development; Third, the way to solve this problem requires the cooperation of all countries in the world and the efforts of all mankind.

With the in-depth development of economic globalization, countries in the world are increasingly infiltrating and interdependent in economic, political, social and cultural aspects, and global problems are increasing.

The disparity between the rich and the poor is a global phenomenon. At the beginning of the new century, poverty is still a major global problem, mainly due to the continuous impoverishment of the middle and lower classes of society.

The ecological environment is divided into east, west, north and south. With the global warming, drought, flood, famine and plague will become serious threats to human beings in 2 1 century. As the life support system of the earth, the environment is recognized as an inseparable whole, and there is no distinction between east, west, north and south. The ecological environment closely links all countries in the world, and environmental pollution has no geographical boundaries. The new concept and new requirements of global human security force all countries in the world to establish a new framework of active and pragmatic interconnection. This new type of partnership is driven by the common interests of both sides, rather than charity from one side to the other; It is to share market opportunities fairly, not to pursue unilateral protectionism.

The world drug situation is grim, and there are some new trends, the most prominent of which are: global underworld organizations and drug groups are joining forces in different forms, becoming an unstable factor threatening the world; With the gradual diversification of narcotics, all kinds of "soft drugs" have become the "new favorites" in the drug consumption market. With the deepening of various activities carried out by the international community in the field of drug control, people begin to realize that only coordinated and close cooperation among governments is the only way to completely solve the drug problem.

International terrorism is getting worse. Eliminating the threat of terrorism will be a long-term war. Anti-terrorism experts believe that terrorism is not only a "political plague" in the 20th century, but also a top priority for world security in the 2nd/kloc-0th century.

Ethnic separatist activities run counter to the trend of the times. The ethnic problem is a global and complex social problem, which is related to the internal unity of all countries and the stability of the international situation.

The tide of immigrants (refugees) swept the world.

In view of the measures taken by developed countries to restrict the flow of immigrants (refugees), the phenomenon of illegal immigration has emerged one after another, causing tension in foreign relations and humanitarian condemnation of the countries concerned. Properly handling the problem of immigrants (refugees) has become an important issue in international relations.

The reform of political system is a common issue facing all countries in the world. Political reform is the general trend, but how to carry it out, not only to maintain social stability, but also to promote economic development, is still a problem that most countries will continue to explore in the future.

Sovereignty and non-interference in internal affairs, human rights and humanitarian intervention are essentially legal shields for western countries to promote power politics, safeguard hegemony and interfere in the internal affairs of third world countries under the new situation, and legalize them. This is the new interventionism in the era of globalization.

The urgent situation of maintaining international security is a serious threat to the survival of mankind, and it requires the concerted efforts of governments and people in Qi Xin to safeguard world peace and security.

The development of globalization is an important factor for the relative stability of the international system after the end of the Cold War, especially the all-round confrontation among major powers. This fact shows that peace and development will remain the theme of the times for a long time to come, large-scale wars around the world may still be avoided, and countries still give priority to revitalizing their economies and seeking more favorable international economic status. Any accidental and serious event can hardly change the basic running situation of world politics and economy.

National sovereignty is closely related to national security. Because the trend of globalization involves all aspects of human society, a country's security must involve financial, information, environment, energy and other issues in addition to the military level. Compared with military security, the importance of security issues in these areas cannot be underestimated. Especially under the circumstances that the globalization process has led to unprecedented extensive and complex international economic activities, economic security issues have become increasingly prominent, and financial security is the most important. In the era of globalization, capital can flow around the world almost without restriction, and sovereign countries' grasp of finance or economy is correspondingly weakened. Once the market rules are abused maliciously and disorderly, the mature market will be aggressive to the immature market, and the power of capital will form a fatal blow to a country's economic and social security, which is no less harmful than the losses caused by a war.

A globalization that can bring "win-win" to all countries in the world must be guaranteed by laws and systems. Globalization objectively requires the international mechanism to play a more and more important role in international relations, and requires the international mechanism to have real action ability. However, international mechanisms dealing with global political and economic issues, such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, the United Nations and the Group of Seven, were almost all formed during the Cold War and dominated by western powers. After the end of the cold war, the functions and nature of these mechanisms have been questioned more and more, and they have been unable to satisfactorily solve the new problems arising in the process of globalization. What is certain is that in the next 15 years, countries all over the world will wage a fierce struggle for the formulation and reform of rules of conduct in international relations in the era of globalization, which will become a remarkable feature of international relations.
