Revelations of China’s global influence and intentions, from one of its most respected foreign policy analysts.For Washington, China is a strategic competitor: the only country with both the will to reshape the world order and, increasingly, the means to do so. For Europe, the People’s Republic is a ‘partner for cooperation, an economic competitor and a systemic rival’. For NATO, it is a ‘decisive enabler’ of Russia’s war against Ukraine. Yet Beijing’s image is far more positive in the Global South, of which the PRC considers itself a part.Zhou Bo’s essays unpack China’s own view of its role today. The PRC is operating not only in a world becoming less Western, but—more importantly—a West becoming less Western; and the key to its outlook lies in Africa, the Middle East and the Indo-Pacific as much as in Europe and the White House.Are Moscow and Beijing really so closely aligned? Where are Sino-Indian relations headed? Is China a new Cold War foe for the West? Or will economic ties inev

On the advanced knowledge economy, which perpetuates patterns of discrimination and exclusion, and the threat of climate change devastation for both human and nonhuman entities.Robots designed to care for people and neglected landscapes of digital trash. The promise of synthetic biology and the panic of living on a dying planet. Wonderful feats of intelligence and systemic acts of violence. Exhilaration and exhaustion. Rosi Braidotti argues that we must think about these apparent contradictions all together in order to make differences that actually matter.Posthuman Knowledge and the Critical Posthumanitiesoscillates between evocations and transections of contemporary conditions, for which Braidotti offers what she calls the “posthuman convergence” as a new paradigm for situating and navigating their problems and possibilities. Reflecting on the knotted situation of the academic humanities, cognitive capitalism, and advanced climate change, she delivers an intersectional critique of hu

★ 探討「生物設計×人工智慧」如何重塑建築與城市未來★ 從都市微生物到地質尺度，拓展設計的時間與空間想像★ 結合實務案例與學術研究，提出設計作為「共生系統」的全新觀點在人工智慧與氣候危機交織的當代，設計的角色正快速轉變。本書《Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green》由創新設計團隊 ecoLogicStudio 主導，延續其前作《Systemic Architecture》，進一步提出「設計智慧」不僅屬於數位領域，也深植於生物系統之中。全書分為兩大部分：第一部分「PhotoSynthetica™」聚焦於都市尺度的應用，透過介入城市微生物生態系，發展能即時回應環境的設計方案；第二部分「Deep Green」則將視野擴展至更宏觀的時空尺度，探索合成地景與長時間演化過程，將設計視為一種影響地理與地質的力量。作者結合於 University of Innsbruck 與 UCL Bartlett School of Architecture 的研究成果，提出設計應被理解為一種延伸的認知介面——一個具有感知能力、能與地球生命系統共演化的存在。在無法簡單「逆轉」氣候變遷的現實下，本書主張我們應建立新的正向變化動能，讓建築與設計成為維繫地球美感與生命力的重要角色。這不僅是一本關於未來設計的書，更是一份重新思考人類、科技與自然關係的深刻提案。Biodesign in the Age of Artificial Intelligence: Deep Green investigates the potential of nature-based technology for shaping the evolution of contemporary architecture and design. It takes on the now pervasive topic of design intelligence, extending its definition to encompass both biological and digital realms.As in their first title, Systemic Architecture: Operating Manual for the Se

The Handbook on Systemic Risk, written by experts in the field, provides researchers with an introduction to the multifaceted aspects of systemic risks facing the global financial markets. The Handbook explores the multidisciplinary approaches to analyzing this risk, the data requirements for further research, and the recommendations being made to avert financial crisis. The Handbook is designed to encourage new researchers to investigate a topic with immense societal implications as well as to provide, for those already actively involved within their own academic discipline, an introduction to the research being undertaken in other disciplines. Each chapter in the Handbook will provide researchers with a superior introduction to the field and with references to more advanced research articles. It is the hope of the editors that this Handbook will stimulate greater interdisciplinary academic research on the critically important topic of systemic risk in the global financial markets.
