The overall concept of the Global China Dialogue series was to provide regular examinations of the consequences of China’s rise for the rest of the world. It has gained in relevance as the world’s governance system comes under ever greater strain from national reactions to globalization.

Justice is the taken-for-granted basis of human relations, from the personal to the global. It comes into focus whenever these relations are disrupted and injustices come to light. The 5th Global China Dialogue reviewed the basis for global governance and examined how China can contribute to a just global order. The four panels were:

• Panel I Inclusion – In a world of sovereign states, can every person belong to global society?
• Panel II Environment – How can the enjoyment of natural resources by some be prevented from damaging the welfare of others?
• Panel III Rights – Should rights expand as society develops?
• Panel IV Conflicts – Can conflicts be managed to secure positive benefits for all?

The GCD V also included the following pre- and post-dialogue events:

• pre-GCD V forum: Digital Interconnection and Intelligent Manufacturing 
• post-GCD V forum: Academic Publishing and Knowledge Service

Note: The photo highlights and the Proceedings will be available in due course.
