Methodological Nationalism – Methodological Cosmopolitism: A Paradigm Shift in Social Sciences
Beck, Ulrich
Methodological Nationalism – Methodological Cosmopolitism: A Paradigm Shift in Social Sciences - 2014.
88
This article argues that methodological nationalism is at odds with the “cosmopolitisation of reality” produced by a global awareness of crises and risks which are neither confined, nor intelligible, at a national level. The article clarifies the notion of methodological cosmopolitanism which is to be distinguished from both normative cosmopolitanism and other ways to cope with difference. The processes of cosmopolitsation are described in seven theses which untangle the conditions of possibility of a cosmopolitan imagined community.
