Amid the unprecedented global changes of the past century and the overarching strategy of China's national rejuvenation,the role and significance of frontiers have undergone fundamental transformations.These changes necessi-tate the development of a border governance theory and discourse system with distinct Chinese characteristics.In this context,the digital revolution has provided timely solutions,leading to the emergence of the digital strong-border strat-egy.Building on an analysis of the era-specific demands for frontier governance,this paper elucidates the theoretical connotations of the digital strong-border strategy and explains the new frontier dynamics shaped by this approach.It further constructs the"physical-society-digital"ternary spatial theoretical framework of the digital strong-edge strategy.Subsequently,the paper delves into the inherent logic,key tasks,and the evolution of governance paradigms under the digital strong-border strategy.Building on the"2522"framework of Digital China construction,this paper proposes a practical pathway for implementing the digital strong-edge strategy.The proposed pathway emphasizes four key aspects:technological empowerment,strategic integration,innovation-driven development,and collaborative cooperation.
