ABSTRACT

Entering into the twenty-first century, economic globalization has been accelerating not only the process of integration of the world economy, but also competition among/between countries, especially among the big powers. International competition manifests itself mainly in dynamic changes in the strategic resources of different countries and open competition between national powers (Zonghe Guoli). They often come into conflict with one another and are locked in contention while being complexly interdependent and interconnected. In the development process, which is quite out of balance, some countries have grown in national power while others are losing. These changes have brought about significant changes to the pattern of the world.
