One World and Many Worlds

Henning Ottmann ; Geschwister-Scholl-Institut, Lehrstuhl für Politische Theorie und Philosophie, München, Germany

Abstract

Reverse from many other theories of globalisation postulating or implying more and more unified world, the author in this paper points out twofoldness of globalisation process. Just in economical view, economy being the sample for globalisation, we can show how the world is not just one but is consisted of many worlds (the first,second and third). Equally this stands for political philosophy which speculates about worldly republic or even a worldly state. Again, arguments of moral philosophy stand here for the thesis that modernity has got not just universal moral but also has one ethics reflecting traditions.

Keywords
