Abstract

The article is devoted to identifying the specifics of ideas about the social security of the territories of the Russian-Chinese border area in Chinese studies of Russian-Chinese interaction. The analysis of Chinese research of Russian-Chinese interaction for the identification of ideas about social security is carried out by the method of historical introspection and conceptualization of ideas about social security and the factors of its formation. The result of the study is the conceptualization of social security aspects in Chinese descriptions of Russian-Chinese interaction in the period up to 70ties of the XX century within the framework of the Imperial Concept, where the key importance had a relationship between China and Russia, as a threat to security. The second result is to identify aspects of the Imperial Concept transformation in the period of 80-90ties of the XX century as a part of ideas proving the existence of a “Russian threat” and ideas, according to which Russia can have both negative and positive impact on the formation of the social security of the Russian-Chinese border. The third result is to determine the understanding specifics of social security in Chinese studies of Russian-Chinese interaction in the XXI century, where, along with the “Imperial Concept,” under the influence of the Western methodology, the concept of “social regionalism” was formed, which as the factors of the social security of the border region consider a wide circle of social processes, such as economic development, integration of the region, a policy aimed at resolving social problems and contradictions, strategies for the formation of regional consciousness and identity
