On national economic security

Abstract

The issue of national economic security is becoming more dominant in China after the cold war with the rapid development of a global economy, especially at the time that China has entered WTO. At present, the economic security is the most realistic and important issue for the national security of China. To work out a proper economic security strategy, it is necessary to clarify the conception of "national economic security". In this paper, the author tries to give a definition of the national economic security by analyzing the economic situation of China and that of overseas, borrowing some ideas on national economic security from foreign countries. Then the author analyzes the difference between the national economic security in China and that in some traditional countries, and that in the developed industrial market economy countries. Finally the author points out some questions for further research.
