The book examines the effects of education in creating global
citizens who share a world culture. This occurs within an
international system that still remains decentralized, composed of
independent nation-states as major actors. Prof. Kamens argues that
as globalization intensifies, this system of nation-states becomes
more saturated and dense with structure. Intensified globalization
has produced a world society, thanks to the spread of global
capitalism, education, democracy and bureaucracy. The upshot is
that world culture travels quickly and produces 'recipes' for the
development of an 'imagined community' that has increasing
commonalities across societies. The book examines the role of
education in diffusing such attitudes and models, as global
citizens confront national institutions.
