A state-centric, militaristic, and capitalist-driven model of the liberal world appears incompatible with the measures required for addressing the global environmental threats in the proposed new geological epoch called the Anthropocene. While there have been discussions suggesting or implying the rejection or radical disruption of existing sets of institutional arrangements in global politics, I propose the possibility of locating effective responses to the Anthropocene challenges within the existing order, albeit a reformed or revised one. This paper presents ways of transforming the liberal international order, without abandoning some of its core values and institutions, through a greater emphasis on human security, global disarmament, and alternative economic models. The convergence of the liberal pursuit of peace and the global pursuit of survival is possible in the Anthropocene.

以国家为中心，由军国主义和资本主义驱动的自由世界模型似乎与提出的新人类时代的拟议地质时代中应对全球环境威胁所需的措施相矛盾。尽管已经有讨论建议或暗示对全球政治中现有体制安排的拒绝或彻底破坏，但我建议有可能在现有秩序中找到对人类世挑战的有效应对方式，尽管是经过改革或修订的。本文通过更加强调人类安全，全球裁军和替代经济模式，提出了在不放弃自由国际秩序的某些核心价值和制度的前提下，转变其方式的方法。
