Produktbeschreibung

This book interrogates the idea that the post-war period is decisive for understanding the contemporary politics of globality. It shows that technological innovations and crucial developments since 1945 - such as the nuclear revolution, the space race, and the rise of global environmentalism - prompted reflections on the global condition of humanity and helped reshape political communities by making the world (appear) small, manageable and interconnected - and hence ripe for new types of polities and governance. This book shows that globality has prompted new forms of human association and ecological humility, but also informed projects of political and military power projection.
