Abstract
Previous chapters have addressed the philosophical foundations of normative theory, its role in the play of ideas and its limitations in light of ideological belief, and the fundamental normative structures in language, morality and knowledge which underpin the practical activity of global politics. Here, the role of normative theory will be shown to extend from addressing philosophical foundations to addressing the conditions of political action at the global level. In particular, values and interests will be shown to be instrumental in the formation of world views.
