| Summary/Abstract |
This article analyzes China's technological development as the main strategic component of the reform policy and the basis for the formation of a new model of the country's development. The paper considers the status and structure of China's digital economy and the main areas of its development in the new era. The example of the multinational company (MNC) Huawei, the world leader in advanced information and communication technologies, shows the status, trends, and prospects for the promotion of Chinese technologies in the format of building the Digital Silk Road (DSR) project. The status and peculiarities of the formation of regional segments of the Digital Silk Road are considered, with special reference to individual countries and regions. We emphasize that in the context of the pandemic, the tightening of US sanctions, and the effective blockade of the US market, the digital economy of China has become the core and the basis for the formation of the DSR. The Southeast Asian regional segment close to China is dynamically developing in this direction. The countries of the Middle East and Latin America have considerable potential for cooperation.

| Summary/Abstract |
The revolution in communication technology could be said to have happened with the advent of the Internet and Mobile phones. Over the last three to four decades the mobile telephone technology has shown exponential growth. Today, this mode of communication has been used almost in every facet of life. It has significant amount of utility for the armed forces too. Moreover, this technology has become very handy for various non-state actors. In the recent past there are varous incidents where few terrorist groups have used this technology to their advantage. This article attempts to analyze how terrorists groups are cleverly using modern means of communication to their advantage with major emphasis on mobile phones.

In an era where the exchange of information has been radically transformed by new technologies, Brian Murphy argues that states should no longer be considered the imagined communities that underpin dominant concepts of national security. He contends that national security experts should think in terms of ‘imagined tribes’ instead.

| Summary/Abstract |
n this article the author probes into how the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea and its political regime managed to survive in defiance of internal economic problems and external political, economic and military pressures it experienced since 1991. Comparison of the available statistics illustrating North Korea’s economic and internal political situation, as well as pressure methods and tactics used on a smaller scale against a far stronger country, the Soviet Union, during the Cold War, allows for taking a fresh look at the effectiveness of foreign policy instruments the United States created during its confrontation with the Soviet Union. Consolidation of the country’s ruling elite amid foreign pressures and exposure to external threats are identified as factors that play the decisive role in determining the outcome of the standoff. The effectiveness of pressure strategies apparently depends on this factor

| Summary/Abstract |
Debates are ongoing on the limits of – and possibilities for – sovereignty in the digital era. While most observers spotlight the implications of the Internet, cryptocurrencies, artificial intelligence/machine learning and advanced data analytics for the sovereignty of nation states, a critical yet under examined question concerns what digital innovations mean for authority, power and control in the humanitarian sphere in which different rules, values and expectations are thought to apply. This forum brings together practitioners and scholars to explore both conceptually and empirically how digitisation and datafication in aid are (re)shaping notions of sovereign power in humanitarian space. The forum’s contributors challenge established understandings of sovereignty in new forms of digital humanitarian action. Among other focus areas, the forum draws attention to how cyber dependencies threaten international humanitarian organisations’ purported digital sovereignty. It also contests the potential of technologies like blockchain to revolutionise notions of sovereignty in humanitarian assistance and hypothesises about the ineluctable parasitic qualities of humanitarian technology. The forum concludes by proposing that digital technologies deployed in migration contexts might be understood as ‘sovereignty experiments’. We invite readers from scholarly, policy and practitioner communities alike to engage closely with these critical perspectives on digitisation and sovereignty in humanitarian space.

| Summary/Abstract |
central idea in recent debates in Russia is that innovation is a sign of economic revival and that innovation will help the country achieve a respectful place in the world economy and politics. Indeed, without innovation, Russia would remain a hybrid, a country with tremendous ambitions and questionable opportunities. Economic scenarios for an innovative Russia abound, but no one has come up with any substantial proposals about what kind of foreign policy Russia needs in this context. Foreign policy has been outside the framework of innovation policy and vice versa, except for a mention of the non-proliferation regime and arms control. Yet these merely imply putting a cap on "bad" technologies rather than supporting "good" ones. At times it has been suggested that Russian science be used as "soft power" (Irina Dezhina addresses this issue), but this is still a matter of debate rather than diplomatic practice. Is this division correct? What role can Russia's foreign policy play in the country's innovative development? What should be done to realize the innovative potential of foreign policy?

We seldom speak of the electrical, the automotive, or the aeronautical humanities, for all that those technologies have done to revolutionize the social order of scholarship and transform the practices of scholars.

International Affairs: The Soviet Union and the United States joined hands to establish the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) at the height of the Cold War, a geopolitical standoff. What prompted the two superpowers during the era of confrontation to start an organization of this sort?
Prof. Detlof von Winterfeldt: It started with a conversation between President Johnson and Premier Kosygin in the United States; it was connected to a meeting they had at the UN at that time. One of the topics they discussed was essentially something you may consider science diplomacy, or diplomacy through science. And the idea was born that an international institute founded primarily by the Soviet Union and the United States and their respective allies would be a good vehicle to study problems of joint interest, problems of the industrialized countries that we shared, like pollution and energy. And also behind that, I believe, was the aspect that it would be good for both blocs if scientists could meet unencumbered with ideological, political issues and they could meet to exchange ideas, for a mathematician is a mathematician whether he is a communist mathematician or a capitalist mathematician. So soon after that meeting between Johnson and Kosygin, their advisers, and especially McGeorge Bundy of the United States and Dzhermen Gvishiani of the Soviet Union were the main men who moved this forward. And in 1972, IIASA was born, and Austria provided it with a castle, and we pay only a nominal fee for the castle, less than one euro a year. And so, we've been there since 1972, and the emphasis of research has shifted somewhat.

| Summary/Abstract |
Most Americans used to think about climate change—to the extent that they thought about it at all—as an abstract threat in a distant future. But more and more are now seeing it for what it is: a costly, human-made disaster unfolding before their very eyes. A wave of increasingly destructive hurricanes, heat spells, and wildfires has ravaged communities across the United States, and both scientists and citizens are able to connect these extreme events to a warming earth. Seven in ten Americans agree that global warming is happening, according to a 2018 study conducted by the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication. About six in ten think it is mostly caused by human activity and is already changing the weather. Four in ten say they have personally experienced its impact. And seven in ten say the United States should enact measures to cut greenhouse gas emissions, including prices and limits on carbon dioxide pollution, no matter what other countries do.

| Summary/Abstract |
Wing Commander Anand Sharma examines the shift from defence against ballistic missiles by destroying them in fixed silos getting negated by mobile launchers and other steps to direct anti- ballistic missile capabilities. As the research and development of anti-ballistic missile systems continued gaining effectiveness and advance capabilities, counter-measures to missile defence also matured and were outflanking the efforts. This offence-defence play-off brought ballistic missile defence into prominence in security planning. Many technologies have come to the fore to provide defence against the annihilating ballistic missile attack. The ultimate effect appears to be an expansion of the offence-defence competition with many unpredictable developments and effects.
