问题 Since its early appearance in the 1960s, the term "globalization" has been used in both popular and academic literature to describe a process, a condition, a system, a force, and an age. Given that these competing labels have very different meanings, their indiscriminate usage is often obscure and invites confusion. For example, a sloppy conflation of process and condition encourages circular definitions that possess little explanatory power. For example, the often-repeated truism that "globalization [the process] leads to more globalization [the condition]" does not allow us to draw meaningful analytical distinctions between causes and effects. Hence, I suggest that we use the term globality to signify a social condition characterized by the existence of global economic, political, cultural and environmental interconnections and flows that make many of the currently existing borders and boundaries irrelevant. Yet, we should not assume that "globality" refers to a determinate endpoint that precludes any further development. Rather, this concept points to a particular social condition that, like all conditions, is destined to give way to new, qualitatively distinct constellations.
选项
答案 “全球化”这个术语早在20世纪60年代出现时就用于通俗文学以及学术文献，用以描述一个过程、一种状态、一个体系、一种力量以及一个时代。这些冲突性的名号意义差别很大，不加选择的话经常会很难理解，让人心生困惑。比如，过程和状态马马虎虎地拼在一起就会产生一些毫无解释力的循环定义。就比如一再提到的陈词滥调——全球化(过程)，导致了更多的全球化(状态)，对此，我们根本就无法对因果做出有意义的分析。所以，我建议使用“全球性”一词来表示一种社会状态，由于全球的经济、政治、文化以及环境的相互联系和流动，许多现存的边界和界限都变得无关紧要。但是，我们不认为“全球性”是一个阻碍向前发展的终结点，相反，这个概念指向一种特别的社会状态，就像所有的状态一样，注定要为新生的、具有特优质地的意群让位。
