How can we understand long-term change in world politics better?
Based on readings of thinkers as diverse as Habermas, Foucault and
Luhmann, the contributors to this volume propose a framework for
understanding such change in terms of social evolution. They show
that processes of social learning and unlearning are key to
understanding the long-term historical evolution of complex
societies, and propose to approach these with the core concepts of
autonomization, hierarchical complexity, and co-evolution. Four
case studies illustrate this social evolutionary perspective to the
study of world politics, examining the evolution of forms of
organizing political authority, of conflicts, of diplomacy, of law
as boundary condition.
