《美国展望》杂志第13卷第1期(2002年1月1日)刊登了阿玛蒂亚·森题为《如何评价全球主义》的文章,文章认为全球化和市场经济并不是新的西方祸害:它产生很早,非西方文明也曾为此作出巨大贡献,而且全球化是有利于人类进步和繁荣的。但是全球化和市场经济并不必然带来民主和下层大多数人民生活的改善,因此,需要对当前的全球制度安排进行改革。文章主要内容如下。 American Perspective magazine, Volume 13, Number 1 (January 1, 2002) publishes an article by Amartya Sen entitled “How to Evaluate Globalism,” arguing that globalization and the market economy are not new to the West Scourge: It came very early, non-Western civilizations have also made a great contribution to this end, and globalization is conducive to human progress and prosperity.

Therefore, the current global institutional arrangements need to be reformed. The main contents of the article are as follows.
