@text:Together these two companion volumes develop an innovative theory of world politics, grounded in the reinterpretation of the concepts of `world¿ and `politics¿ from an ontological perspective.Drawing on Martin Heidegger¿s account of world disclosure and Alain Badioüs phenomenology of worlds, this book posits world politics as a practice of the affirmation of universal axioms across an infinite plurality of limited and particular situations or `worlds¿. Prozorov reinterprets the familiar principles of community, equality and freedom in ontological terms as attributes of pure being, subtracted from all positive determinations, and presents them as axioms of universalist politics valid in any world whatsoever.
