Abstract
Up until Kant’s critical philosophy, it was not easy to speak
of the “world” itself as distinct from “nature”. After Kant, the
world began to be considered from a historical perspective.
Therefore, the world came to be considered as historical rather than natural, which is why it is possible to speak of different worlds in the history of thought. However, globalization
more and more drives these different worlds into a uniform
historical globe. In this paper, I consider the question of globalization as a passage “from multiple historical worlds to
a uniform historical globe”. By analyzing the passages from
“nature” to the “world” and from the “world” to the “globe,”
I focus on how the idea of “dwelling in the world” and of
“saving the earth” has increasingly transformed into the idea
of “dominating the world” and of “owning the earth”.
