Abstract
In the 1980s,with the structural constraints of the Cold War removed,boundaries between the Three World seem to be abolished.However,the much touted victory of liberalism over communism,rather than confirm the teleology of modernization,has brought to the surface of globalization which has rendered the future of the world order even more problematic.Which one will be the model of our world,the Westphalia System,or the Universal-Homogeneous State,or Civilizations The goal of this article is not more to prophesy history than to analyze the possible logic behind the choices.
