“格局”原意是格式布局，现代政经语境中常做引申义“局势、态势”使用，常见的表示“格局”的词有8个：environment、framework、plan、pattern、structure、landscape、paradigm、situation。

1. environment

我们要树立共同、综合、合作、可持续的安全观，营造共建共享的安全格局。--《习近平在“一带一路”国际合作高峰论坛开幕式上的演讲》

It is crucial to create a fair, just, and participatory security framework, pursue innovative, inclusive and green development, promote exchanges between civilizations, and preserve and protect ecosystems and the natural environment.
