Abstract
The world seems to be characterized by political pluralization (the emergence of ‘polities’ other than the nation state) in addition to an already existing state of moral pluralism. This severely complicates political attempts at problem-solving on, for example, a global scale. One of the most stressing potential problems is the coexistence of mutually effacing or contradictory systems of political norms. To tackle such problems, we argue that policy teloi – shared conceptions giving direction to cooperative political ventures (particularly sustainable development) – can be helpful. The conditions of success for policy teloi in the case of environmental sustainability are investigated.
