The so-called New World Order can be interpreted as a spontaneously emerging world system in the prriod of transition from modern civilization to post-modern civilization.This new world order is comprised of two problem-axes: the New East-West Problem and the New North-South Problem. The former refers to the relationship between Euro-American and East-Asian branches of modern civilization and its task is successfully and peacefully to achieve "informatization"of modern civilization through "co-emulation" of the two branches so that the stage for formation of a new universal civilization is meaningfully set. The latter refers to the relationship between the modern and industrialized North and the pre-modern South who had to realize the impossibility of modernization. The only alternatives left for them is either to return to the fundamentalism endorsing the principles of pre-modern civilization or to look for a new set of integrating and symbiotic principles of civilization.As a matter of principle, it should be possible for the North and the South to cooperate in their endeavor to build a new civilization. But, in reality, the more likely mutual relationship, as far as the forseeable future is concerned, is that of mutual confrontation, with containment of the South by North or with minimun commitment by the North to alleviate the predicament the South is bound to face.
