Globalization has emerged as an unstoppable force since the 1950s, exerting a profound influence on the political, economic, military, environmental, and social realms of humanity. Despite this, existing theories in humanities and social sciences have largely been rooted in the traditional "nation-state" model. In response, this groundbreaking work, a pioneering endeavor in global studies originating from China, aims to establish a novel theoretical framework in the context of globalization.

Volume 1 delves into the fundamental concepts and explores the critical challenges of globalization. Here, the editors redefine notions of politics, economics, law, and globality, employing globalization as a theoretical framework. Volume 2 takes a deeper dive into the multifaceted and multidimensional nature of globalization, examining processes and systems of global society in the light of globalization and exploring the establishment of a stable and rational global order.

These two volumes serve as an indispensable resource for scholars and students in the fields of politics, economics, international relations, and law. They provide a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the evolving global landscape, offering valuable insights into the complex dynamics shaping our world.
