▲「 About the First Issue Interdependence」
In our heavily globalized world, mutual dependency has become an integral element of contemporary society. These dependencies manifest in a number of ways and on multiple levels—in economic relationships, but also in more unique ways shaped by recent developments, including those sparked by rapid technological innovation, the acceleration of anthropogenic climate change, and immense healthcare challenges in the midst of a current pandemic. Our first issue featured 9 articles including personal reflections, interviews, and research papers. While our journal is primarily focused on the United States and China, discussions of interdependence involve a wide range of topics including but not limited to global cooperation and conflicts, technological advancement, COVID Pandemic, Climate Change and Sustainable Development.
