Abstract

After a study of the formation and the main content of Marx's historical philosophy,this paper holds that the theory of world history is one part of his historical philosophy,and cannot be categorized into sociology,politics,or history,etc.In the study of globalization,therefore, we should dig into the world history under the guide of Marx's historical philosophy,instead of using it independently in eulogy of globalization.Thus more attention should be paid to the cliques of today's social basis,particularly to that of capitalistic society,instead of merely a description and a general study of globalization on the dimension of social phenomenon,which scarcely helps the modernization progress of China,nor the establishment of world order.
