Abstract:Theories such as balance of power, deterrence, collective security, democratic peace, interdependence are proposed by three major schools of contemporary international relations to solve the security dilemma of the international society. However, the international anti-terrorism cooperation is quite inefficient with the major Western countries, which adopt traditional security views, always exploit terrorism against strategic rivals and use unilateralism and dual standards in the wars on terror. This means that the limitations of traditional security ideas and corresponding solutions are often exposed.Generally speaking, international relations scholars believe that the essence of the relationship between countries is similar to the natural state of Hobbes: the international community is actually in a state of anarchy and all countries are always lost in a security dilemma, for there is no institution with sufficient legitimacy and authority to adjust conflicts among nations. Actually, the existing international law is so weak that it is only regarded as a piece of advice for sovereign governments in most situations. International law has no fundamental coercive power over countries, so countries can choose either to enforce or not to enforce according to their own circumstances. Thus, in an international anarchy, the countries whose interests are harmed resort to self-help instead of international law. Historically, in order to maintain their own interests and solve the security dilemma of survival, countries had to resort to a series of solutions. Three modern international relations theories are constructed to provide different theory systems and solutions to the dilemma based on the assumption of international anarchy.Each solution has distinguished features, but they are often under a lot of criticisms. Realism theories which are based on pessimistic assumptions of human nature, put forward theories such as deterrence, containment, collective security, balance of power, hegemonic stability and alliance to maintain the unbreakable balance of power between different power groups. But the balance of the game will be broken sooner or later and then all efforts will give up halfway. Liberal theories are optimistic about human nature. The theorists believe that the security dilemma will be eliminated by increasing interdependence through economic cooperation among countries. Their solutions include democratic peace, power interdependence and international institution cooperation, but liberal theorists do not recognize that these theories are the accessory tools created by the hegemony countries to maintain the hegemony systems of the hegemonic states. What they achieve is the interests of hegemony and temporary peace. Constructivism holds that a country can shape the relationship between its enemies and friends according to its own needs, but it attaches too much importance to the subjectivity of human beings instead of material objectivity, and fails to realize that the subjective construction of a country is not omnipotence.Limited by the traditional security concept, the security crisis that the international community is facing is increasing: the continuous expansion of the pandemic, the turbulence of the world situation aggravated by great game powers, major Western countries seeking new nuclear deterrents under the new Cold War mentality, and global diffusion of terrorism. Based on long-term practices and theory discussions, Chinese government and Chinese academic circles put forward new security concepts featuring mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and collaboration. Human society is forming a closely connected community and the international community must therefore abandon old traditional security ideas and work together to build a security community on the basis of mutual trust, mutual benefit, equality and collaboration to deal with common serious threats and stop the global flooding trend of terrorism.
