第二届“百年变局中的中国与西方”高层论坛
暨“全球化、民粹主义与中西方文化交流”学术研讨会
The Second Symposium on “Century of Changes: Between China and the West” Seminar on “Globalization, Populism and Cultural Exchange Between China and the West”
After decades of breakneck progress, globalization has been experiencing an unprecedented anti-globalization rebound in recent years. Populists who hold high the banner of defending national and ethnic interests are against globalism in different ways. Political factors and value system differences are becoming involved in global economic competition. And global economic organizations and economic and technological cooperation among the countries are becoming regionalized and grouped. The rise of the hitherto unknown wave of anti-globalization, on the one hand, originated from the severe imbalance in the economic structure and wealth distribution as well as intensified internal social conflicts in some countries caused by the rapid development of globalization in the past decades; on the other hand, from a psychological anxiety of “erosion” during the process of close economic and cultural exchanges among a few groups in some countries. In this sense, the rise of anti-globalization and populism should be a by-product of the rapid development of globalization. When Huntington proposed “Who We Are” in 2004, it was merely an academic issue of concern to a few scholars, yet today it has become a populist slogan in many countries. That “Globalization is Dead” is no longer a minority perspective. On April 8th, 2022, the New York Times published the “Globalization Is Over. The Global Culture Wars Have Begun.” As the flag media of liberalism and multiculturalism in the United States, the publication of such an article somehow indicates a social tendency in the present American society.
But is Globalization truly coming to an end? If Globalization is not declining, will the form of Globalization change? And if so, in what direction? How should people continue to promote Globalization in the face of populist opposition? Will human society develop amid culture wars and clashes of civilizations? Or will it progress through cultural exchange and integration? To further explore these questions, on March 25, 2023, the Shangdao Institute for Social Research, with the Liu Xi Academy and the School of Foreign Languages of Guangzhou Nan Fang College, will hold a seminar on 'Globalization, Populism and Cultural Exchange between China and the West.'
