Yin-Yang Theory and Globalization

Abstract

Based on the discourse of Yin-Yang theory, the paper is to study the relationship between globalization and anti-globalization, attempting to develop an interdisciplinary analytical method via the oriental philosophy. The paper attempts to constitute the following codes for reference in the analysis of international relations: (1) as an analytical model to deconstruct the diverse international phenomena via the oriental traditional philosophy (2) as a mirror or medium to learn international conflicts, helps to communicate ideas, and achieves the moral or ethical consensus; and (3) as a theoretical tool attempting to constitute a new discourse in IR study.
