Political Globalistics

The globalizing world needs more and more the globalizing social knowledge. That is why
we experience such an acute defi cit in productive metaconcepts and macromethods that
could make it possible for us to study the development of both polities and suprapolitical
systems in the global temporal and spatial perspective, that would provide us with a reliable
methodology of the connection between the micro- and macrolevels, between the local and
the global, with an instrument allowing to compare political systems in an objective way
using various parameters, to detect macrotrends within the enormous historical diversity,
to identify causal hierarchies affecting processes of political globalization, and so on.
