基辛格的世界秩序观

Kissinger's View on World Order

基辛格是美国著名的思想家、政治家和外交家,他的世界秩序观在《世界秩序》一书得到集中体现。基辛格所指的世界秩序实际上就是源于欧洲、扩大到世界范围的国际秩序。基辛格认为源于欧洲的威斯特伐利亚体系体现了欧洲的世界秩序观,为当代世界秩序奠定了基础,但是在欧洲之外,还存在其他不同类型文明与世界秩序观。基辛格指出美国为当代世界秩序作出了巨大贡献,美国领导的世界秩序也取得了很大成就,但是当代世界秩序面临严重危机与挑战,为应对这些危机与挑战,美国应当继续做世界秩序的领导者,在坚持美国普世价值的前提下,建立包容世界不同文明的世界秩序。基辛格肯定了不同文明与世界秩序观的价值,但他并没有完全摆脱"西方文明中心"的窠臼。
