Dickens\u2019s portrait of the social phenomenon at the peak of the nineteenth century\u2019s industrialization seems to reflect on today\u2019s hesitation of security and trust. Confucius\u2019s prospect of the future two thousand years ago still raises questions for the pursuit and aspiration of security and trust in modern times.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
When mainland China faces security issues of food, air, and drinking water, imbalance of housing resources, stagnating social mobility, Taiwan faces the dispute on energy safety, downfall of media authority, widening gaps between the rich and poor, and imbalance of education recourses, while Hong Kong faces government administration crises, shrinking housing space, and conflicts between immigrants and locals\u2026 At the beginning of the second decade of the twentieth century, the Chinese-speaking society is facing a massive crisis of security and trust.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
For a very long time in the past, with diligence, resilience, and spirit, Chinese people endured pressure and plight that lasted from the nineteenth century to the twentieth century and pursued national pride and prosperity under the suppression of imperialism and colonialism. At that time, security is the result of forbearance, and trust is measured by political attitudes.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the last score of the twentieth century, societies of Greater China stepped onto a new self-guided path. \u201cDevelopment is of overriding importance\u201d and \u201cthe only way to success is through struggle\u201d symbolize this period of striving, but, in the meantime, the pursuit of life quality and of fair distribution is sacrificed. At that time, security is the result of risk-taking, and trust is measured by the depth of one\u2019s pocket.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, in the twenty-first century, there is a multitude of values, attitudes, information, ecologies, and tastes. Who can guarantee the quality? Who can explain a verity? Who can turn water into ice? Who can hold\u00a0the eternity? A series of question marks is challenging us.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
In this situation filled with question marks, can old political attitudes and accumulated wealth remain the major breeding ground of security and trust? That is the starting point of our question of 2013. From here on, we must explore further:<\/p>\n

In 2013, CNEX casts \u201cSecurity and Trust\u201d as a sonar probe to detect mental frontiers of the Chinese societies. We expect responses in the following aspects:<\/p>\n
