The concept of holistic national security (Chinese: 总体国家安全观; pinyin: Zǒngtǐ guójiā ānquán guān), also translated as comprehensive national security, is a principle of national security policy defined by Chinese Communist Party general secretary Xi Jinping in 2014. According to this principle, dimensions such as economic security, cybersecurity, and energy security are viewed as necessary to traditional national security concerns.




Development


Xi Jinping introduced the concept of holistic national security in 2014, which he defined as taking "the security of the people as compass, political security as its roots, economic security as its pillar, military security, cultural security, and cultural security as its protections, and that relies on the promotion of international security.": 3  Holistic national security also emphasizes the need for energy security.: 77 
Xi created National Security Commission of the Chinese Communist Party, which focuses on holistic national security and addresses both external and internal security matters.: 180  The concept has since been used as a tenet of the CCP's Global Security Initiative.
In April 2021, the Research Centre for a Holistic Approach to National Security was established at the China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR) in order to further develop the concept of holistic national security.: 37  Yuan Peng was the Centre's secretary general during his term as CICIR president.: 37  Researchers at the Centre view "great economic change" as an important component of "great changes unseen in a century.": 41 
In a text issued in 2021, the Centre wrote that holistic national security threats are likely to emerge in "new frontiers" like polar regions, deep sea, the internet, artificial intelligence, and space.: 49  In this view, the development of these new frontiers creates uncertainty because they do not have clear geographical borders and therefore transcend traditional ideas of sovereignty.: 49
