In today's world, the global landscape is undergoing a deep restructuring. When German Chancellor Mertz and British Prime Minister Stamer solemnly signed the Kensington Treaty at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and French President Macron immediately rushed to Berlin to inject new power into German and French engines, the European continent quietly restarted a process called“E3”The strategic coordination framework. This is not an ordinary diplomatic interaction, but a strategic self rescue by the core European forces to cope with uncertainty at a time when there are subtle cracks in transatlantic relations. Almost at the same time and space, Australia and the United Kingdom in the southern hemisphere adopted the Treaty of Partnership and Cooperation on Nuclear Powered Submarines toAUKUSThe alliance is moving towards a substantive stage. This cooperation poses profound systemic challenges to the nuclear non-proliferation system established after World War II, from international legal principles, strategic balance to global governance dimensions. The chessboard of great power games is being rearranged, and the old order and tacit understanding are facing severe tests.

The ripples of geopolitics are inevitably stirred up by economic waves. Turning to Southeast Asia, Indonesia, with its vast market, abundant nickel ore resources, and strong policy support, is rapidly emerging as a new battlefield for the global electric vehicle industry, attracting fierce competition from major manufacturers such as China, Japan, and South Korea. In the digital field, the US Genius Act establishes the first federal stablecoin regulatory framework with the intention of restructuring in the digital economy eraitsFinancial hegemony. A more significant transformation comes from the traditional energy sector，OPEC+Comprehensive recovery daily averagetwo hundred and twentyThe production of 10000 barrels marks the shift of its policy focus from“Production restriction and price protection”steering“Opening gates to compete for market share”This indicates that the global energy market has entered a new era of more intense competition and complex games.

Faced with the turbulence of the international landscape and the evolution of the global economic ecology, the role of cities has become increasingly crucial. They are not only the forefront of various risk shocks, but also the testing ground for humanity to seek resilient development. Systematic construction after extremely heavy rainstorm in Zhengzhou“31382”Flood control and waterlogging prevention system, achieving the goal of“Rainstorm”to“Resilient City”The arduous reshaping; Implemented in Copenhagen for decades without interruption“Bicycle priority”Transforming transportation into a deep governance reform that enhances urban sustainability and residents' quality of life; Moving on to the Hammarby Eco City in Stockholm, transforming from an industrial ruin to an ecological lighthouse aimed at fossil fuel free targets——These practices collectively reveal that the resilience of modern cities far exceeds the solidity of physical facilities, and lies more in the ability of the overall system to co evolve and community governance, which is the core of addressing climate uncertainty.

However, all the efforts of these artificial systems need to be examined within a broader narrative context, which is“Anthropocene”The paradox. The spread of mosquito borne diseases in Europe is intensifyingnamelyClear evidence: Industrial activities lead to climate change, creating conditions for mosquito vector expansion, and ultimately causing a public health crisis to backfire on society. this kind of“Risk Return Dart”The effect exposes the synchronicity between civilization progress and self deconstruction. What needs to be more vigilant is that the risk spiral is not a democratic punishment for the creators, but a precise backlash against vulnerable groups along the socio-economic fault line, forming“Ecological stratification illusion”This forces us to reflect: true progress does not lie in inventing new technologies to resist a single risk, but in recognizing the chain reaction of one's own behavior in the global ecosystem and adjusting the development path to build an inclusive and secure network.

Ultimately, all macro level thinking needs to be guarded by the micro level. How to make the lifeline of the city——The water supply, power supply, transportation, and communication that maintain the operation of modern cities“bloodline”and“nerve”——Stay strong in uncertainty? In this conversation, Wu Jiaye, Chairman of Shengtuo Testing, a leading enterprise in the field of non-destructive testing, explores the use of“elastic wave”The password to safeguard the bottom line of urban security with cutting-edge technology. It is these seemingly insignificant technological innovations and persistent professional perseverance that provide the most fundamental support for the resilience ideal of grand narratives. In the intertwined landscape of global order evolution, economic paradigm shift, urban form upgrading, and reflection on civilization development, this protection of concrete security may be the most steadfast step towards a sustainable future.

Qingqiao "by Qingqiao International Security Group、Honglang 5687 Security Consulting Co., LtdJointly produced, we firmly believe that in times of uncertainty, true progress does not lie in the speed of developing new tools, but in timely awareness of the echo of one's own behavior in the ecosystem and adjusting the path accordingly. Only by incorporating reflexivity into the core logic of civilization and finding a sustainable way of survival in the cycle of risks can humanity achieve the transition from confronting nature to coexisting and prospering together——This is not only the introduction of this issue of 'Qingqiao', but also a response to the future era.
