Abstract
Common threat and co-morbid realization have diverted the attention of
humans toward non-traditional security studies. The real essence of nontraditional security (NTS) is called ‘shared security’. It is not only extension
and transformation of security, but it also gives innovation to discourse of
NTS studies. The object of shared security is to solve conflicts of human
society in general and in diverse conflicts under the Chinese values and
contribution in security and diplomacy in particular. Chinese concepts, such
as ‘bao he tai he’ (great harmony are preserve in union), ‘wan guoxianning’
(states all enjoy response), ‘he erbu tong’ (harmony but not sameness), and
‘tianxia da tong’ (unity of the world) all embody rich intellectual resources
and the growing discourse on ‘shared security’. The Chinese ‘Five Principles
of Peaceful Coexistence’ are the symbol of peace and harmony while the origin
of share security provided an important ideological and unique value of the
cooperation. The contribution of Chinese scholars and the new concepts like
new world, common security, human security and global governance have
provided the creative possibilities for sharing security argument. This study
attempts to link NTS to common threats and develop shared security within
Chinese characteristics.
