Abstract: Thucydides Trap is frequently seen in human history when wars break out between some emerging big powers and the existing big powers in pursuit of bigger power.Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China,General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly mentioned this trap,pointing out that China will definitely not fall into the Thucydides Trap.In his speech in United Nations General Assembly,Xi proposed to build a human community of shared destiny.In fact,Thucydides Trap is only a historical phenomenon instead of a historical rule.A human community of shared destiny is not only a concentrated illustration of China's view on international order,but also a good prescription for the great rejuvenation and peaceful rise of Chinese nation,showing China's confidence,wisdom,and responsibility to surmount the Thucydides Trap.

Key words: a human community of shared destiny, the Thucydides Trap, confidence, wisdom, responsibility, XI Jinping
