The history of globalism through the prism of media (and biography)

How did people in the past understand globalism? GHIL Research Fellow for Modern History Pascale Siegrist and PR Officer Kim König speak with David Kuchenbuch about his research on American designer R. Buckminster Fuller and the (West) German historian Arno Peters. David Kuchenbuch argues that their work as ‘Welt-Bildner’ (makers of worlds) points us to important shifts in twentieth-century political cultures as well as the way in which people understood their place in an interconnected world.
