Features: The book "Information Revolution and International Relations," written by experts and scholars from the Institute of Modern International Relations of China, has recently been published and released by Shiji Press. The book provides a detailed analysis of the impact of the information revolution on contemporary international relations and some issues emerging in the process of global informatization from several aspects, including theory, policy, the world economy, and international security. It also discusses major issues in the context of informatization, such as "national governance," "global governance," "national sovereignty," issues in information economics, the "digital divide," the "communication divide" in global information networks, cyber terrorism, information security assurance, and international cooperation. The book presents some personal views and suggestions. Currently, there are few books in the field of international relations research in China that systematically and comprehensively explore the impact of the information revolution on international relations. The publication of this book represents a valuable attempt and effort in this regard and is worth reading.
