Kritik
"Bowden's The Strange Persistence of Universal History in Political Thought is a strange book. It is also a book worth reading and thinking about. ... It is worth reading, however, first as a history of the writing of universal history, and second as a way to think about the way our concepts of history shape society." (Michael J. Douma, The Journal of Value Inquiry, Vol. 53, 2019)mehr
