Abstract:

In today’s world, the spread of the uncertain trend of global development not only gives birth to brand-new social facts, but also impacts the intellectual foundation and theoretical soil on which globalization research is rooted. Facing the realistic tension brought by a series of global shocks and continuous uncertain development, we must critically reflect on and reconstruct globalization theory at the theoretical level. At the epistemological level, the existing globalization theory is still limited to empirical deduction and circular demonstration of “meta-problems”, representing the dualistic mindset of “structure-action”; while at the ontological level, it still stays in the formal debate and repeated game of meta-logic, representing the dualistic opposition of “time-space”, which eventually leads to the methodological falling into the shackles of “structure-oriented” speculative logic and research. In order to effectively cope with the new trend of global uncertainty, we can try a new path of paradigm transformation and theoretical research from “structure-oriented” to “relationship-oriented” in the theoretical research of globalization.

Key words: globalization theory, uncertainty, structure-oriented, relationship-oriented
