Abstract
The concept of a community with a shared future has emerged as a guiding principle in global governance, emphasizing humanity’s interconnectedness and shared interests. In the post-pandemic era, global governance faces unprecedented challenges and changes, impacting health security, economic recovery, and social stability. Amidst these changes, China’s approach to international management has evolved, presenting innovative solutions and injecting new dynamics into the global landscape. This paper explores the relationship between a community with a shared future and China’s global governance logic in the post-pandemic era. It examines the challenges of global governance in this new context and delves into China’s specific practices within the framework of a community with a shared future. The study reviews China’s efforts in global health governance, economic cooperation, development assistance, climate change, and sustainable development. Through qualitative and quantitative research methods, this study analyzes China’s role in shaping the global landscape and the impact of a community with a shared future on international relations. The research draws from primary data collected through official documents, international agreements, and statements from relevant stakeholders. The findings reveal that China’s emphasis on a community with a shared future has fostered increased cooperation and collaboration in various global governance areas. China’s contributions to global health initiatives, economic partnerships, and sustainable development demonstrate its commitment to multilateralism and inclusive approaches to addressing global challenges.
