When sovereignty fails, borders tremble,
and nationalism resurges while democracy turns into spectacle,
we must confront the question:
Is the state still our protector-or our cage?
The State: Redefinition in the Age of Globalization
is not a textbook on politics.
It is a philosophical reconstruction of human governance.
Through first-principle analysis, Ping Xu dismantles the illusions of sovereignty,
exposes how warfare, education, labor, media, and economics
have become obsolete control systems,
and proposes a new framework for responsibility-based civilization.
This book does not call for rebellion-it calls for renewal.
It challenges us to imagine a world beyond the nation-state,
where humanity acts not as divided citizens,
but as co-governors of a shared planet.
A manifesto for the next version of humanity.
From nationalism and sovereignty to the spectacle of democracy,Ping Xu redefines the idea of the State through first principles,
proposing a Responsibility Civilization as the governance model beyond sovereignty.
A bold synthesis of politics, ethics, economics, and philosophy-
this book provides the intellectual foundation for the next evolution of human civilization. 從國族主義、主權幻覺到民主表演，
徐萍以「第一性原理」重構國家概念，
提出「責任文明」作為主權之後的治理藍圖。
這是一本橫跨政治、倫理、經濟與哲學的時代之書，
為地球文明升級提供思想基礎。
當主權失靈，國界動搖，
國族主義再次被煽動，民主淪為表演。
我們以為「國家」是秩序的起點，
其實，它早已成為人類進化的阻礙。
《國家：全球化中的再定義》
不是一本政治學教科書，
而是一部拆解整個文明邏輯的思想工程。
徐萍以「第一性原理」回到人類制度的原點，
逐章揭示國家、主權、軍火、教育、工作、媒體、民主、經濟等系統
如何在全球化與科技時代中逐漸失去正當性。
本書不是反叛，而是重建。
它邀請讀者思考：
當人類不再以國界區分彼此，
文明能否升級為「地球公民社會」？
這是一本為未來準備的書--
寫給下一版本的人類。
