Preferred term

universality  

Definition

  • Political theory has conventionally proceeded on the basis that its insights are applicable universally. The universal applicability of political theory is now far less self-evident, due to challenges to the idea of universality from a number of quarters, including communitarianism, feminism, and postmodernism.
