Summary/Abstract |
In this article, Keith Dear argues that demographic and geographic constraints on national power are reducing in two ways. First, that automation, robotics and AI reduce states’ dependence on people to create wealth and to scale military forces to deter or fight. Second, while geography was once the only arena for international competition, today, economic, military and political contests increasingly extend to the digital metaverse. He argues that we are moving beyond the ‘geo’ in geopolitics, witnessing the digital transformation of power.

Summary/Abstract |
Since the turn of the century the Chinese state has endeavoured to establish an internationally competitive, export-oriented software services industry centred on large domestic firms. However, despite concerted targeting and significant state investment, the industry's size and capabilities have fallen further behind those in peer competitor countries, particularly India. The article assesses the progress of the industry in China and examines how this relates to the PRC's software strategy. It does so by adopting a comparative analysis approach, evaluating the PRC's policy agenda and the axioms underpinning it in light of emerging research on the processes and mechanisms behind the more successful development of the software services industry in India. The article concludes by arguing that the PRC needs to make several substantive changes to its software strategy if it is to achieve its objectives

Summary/Abstract |
Economic globalization has not only been accelerationg the process of integration of the world economy but also competition among/between countries, especially that among big powers. International competition manifests itself mainly in the dynamic changes in the strategic resources of different countries and the open competition in the Comprehensive national power. Comprehensive national power (CNP)is a concept that is based on the contemporary political thought of the People's Republic of China and refers to the general power of a nation-state.

Summary/Abstract |
This study analyzes how exchange rate risk exposure and foreign industry competition affect Chinese industries. Using the data from 2005 to 2018, the authors find that industry competition from the US has a statistically significant influence on 33.3 percent of Chinese industries. Unsurprisingly, tradable goods benefit more from depreciation of the Renminbi against the US dollar. Counterintuitively, only 20 percent of the industries supported by the ‘Made in China 2025’ initiative is sensitive to US industrial competition. In addition, on average Chinese industries face international competition from few developed countries, such as the Netherlands; and depreciation of RMB against the Japanese yen is hurting Chinese industries on average. Developing countries, however, exert marginal competition effects on their Chinese counterparts in the sample period.

Summary/Abstract |
Global climate targets have highlighted the need for a whole-systems approach to decarbonisation, one that includes targeted national policy and industry specific change. Situated within this context, this research examines policy and pricing barriers to decarbonisation of the UK steel industry. Here the techno-economic modelling of UK green steelmaking provides a technical contribution to analysis of pricing barriers and policy solutions to these barriers in the UK specifically, but also to the broader industrial decarbonisation literature. Estimated costs and associated emissions projections reveal relevant opportunities for UK steel in contributing to national climate and emissions targets. Modelling demonstrates that green steelmaking options have been put at price disadvantages compared to emissions-intensive incumbents and that fossil-free hydrogen-based steelmaking has lower emissions and lower levelised costs than carbon capture and storage options, including top gas recycling blast furnace (TGR-BF) with CCS, and HIsarna smelter with CCS. Two primary policy recommendations are made: the removal of carbon pricing discrepancies and reductions in industrial electricity prices that would level the playing field for green steel producers in the UK. The research also provides relevant policy considerations for the international community in other industrial decarbonisation efforts and the policies that must accompany these decarbonisation choices.

Summary/Abstract |
NASA's plan to return to the Moon is probably familiar to most. Former US President Donald Trump set a very ambitious goal: to have American women and men stepping on the Moon by 2024. Many consider that an unrealistically short timescale. But international competition to go back to the Moon is fierce. It is not just the United States and China competing to send humans there again. Many other countries have plans, not just giants like Russia, India or the European Union. Japan, Israel, the United Arab Emirates, Canada, the United Kingdom, Turkey and even tiny Luxemburg also have plans.

Summary/Abstract |
Reporters were informed at a press conference held by the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region Party Committee's Office of the Human Resources Development Leading Group that the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region Mid- and Long-Term Talent Development Program (2010-20) (hereinafter referred to as the "talent program") has, with approval from the regional party committee and the regional people's government, been officially promulgated. The talent program is the Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region's first mid- and long-term human resources development program and constitutes an important guiding document for the autonomous region's human resources development work today and for some time to come. The formulation and implementation of the talent program is an important measure for implementing the scientific concept of development and for better implementing the "strong human resources region" strategy (rencaiqiangqu zhanlue); it is an inevitable requirement for implementing the overall strategic dispositions to "build a stable and prosperous Xinjiang, bring prosperity to its people, and consolidate the border regions" and for bringing about scientific leaps forward and "enabling latecomers to catch up and surpass"; and it is of enormous significance for enhancing self-development capacities, coping with the strategic options of increasingly fierce international and domestic competition, accelerating Xinjiang's leapfrog advances and long-term stability, and achieving the goal of building a moderately prosperous society
