This is an inevitable trend for the development of human society. Globalization is essentially the extension, intensification and integration of the worldwide regional transformation as well as the cross-spacio-temporal social relations. As a systematic project of human society it includes economy, politics, culture, science and technology, etc. Today, the world is in the midst of unprecedented great changes, which have deeply affected the international system and order.

Nature and principle of globalization 2. Global Governance 3. Modernization of National Governance 4. Great Changes of the World History in the Past Hundred Years 5.
