Narrative Quantum Entanglement in Geopolitical Systems (NQEGS): A Conceptual Framework for Understanding Global Narrative Influence

Abstract

This paper proposes Narrative Quantum Entanglement in Geopolitical Systems (NQEGS), a framework analogizing quantum entanglement to explore how narratives exert non-localized influence across geopolitical systems, shaping actors and public sentiment beyond traditional boundaries. Through interdisciplinary lenses-communication studies, political science, and systems thinking-it examines narrative reception, polarization, and institutional roles in contemporary geopolitics, emphasizing the analogy's metaphorical nature. The framework analyzes differential narrative reception, amplification of polarization through resonance, and institutional responses within media ecosystems. By applying NQEGS to current events, we offer a novel perspective on the complex dynamics of global narrative influence.
