This volume explores the significance of asymmetrical concepts and their role in shaping the human world, a subject that has long been recognized but rarely examined in detail. Building on Reinhart Koselleck’s influential work from 35 years ago on historical semantics and oppositions such as “Hellenes”/“barbarians,” “Christians”/“pagans,” and “Übermensch”/“Untermensch,” the book brings together leading scholars from history, sociology, literary criticism, linguistics, political science, and international studies. Their collective aim is to further develop and systematize Koselleck’s notion of asymmetric counter-concepts, adapting it to contemporary research and opening new pathways for interdisciplinary inquiry.
