Abstract
This article discusses the role of metaphor in political science, highlighting the centrality of the metaphor historically for understanding human societies. It notes how the contemporary emphasis on global interconnectedness has generated an influx of new metaphors influenced by technological developments, such as networks and the Internet. The article highlights questions that are of enduring interest for political scientists: how to make sense of metaphor itself, and the place of metaphor in political analysis.
