摘要:In this article, we will scrutinize what globalization actually
means when you look at its praxis, not from a socio-political
perspective but from a philosophical stance. This stems from a point of
view that the debate and scholarship on globalization is still too often
protruded by ideological and idealist arguments. These arguments posit
the world as an object to think about or act upon. This thought of
globalization remains stuck in formal conceptions or in a Bildungsideal
rather than referring to the praxis of our being in the world. We will
turn to the critical philosophy of Jean-Luc Nancy to assess the
condition of our existence in and forming of a global world. Following
Heidegger, Nancy argues the world cannot be considered as an external
object we can interpret or gain knowledge about. We will investigate
what this means for a thinking of globalization.
