What do imperialist, religious, egalitarian, or flat earth theory movements have in common? How do they conceptualize their visions of the world or their ideas of a world order? And how do they each try to convince others of the superiority of their model or idea?
The ZiF research group âUnderstanding the Transformations of World Politics: Ordering Principles and the Infrastructures of Communicationâ challenges rather mono-narrative understandings of world order, and we are talking about how they do that in this episode with two of the convenors, the historian
Heidi Tworek and the sociologist
Tobias Werron, and a fellow of the group, the political scientist
Heikki PatomÀki.
