This volume discusses perspectives on cosmopolitanism, as well as
concepts and the work of key figures. For example, it examines
educational, philosophical and historical perspectives, deals with
such issues as citizenship, internationalism, patriotism,
globalization, hegemony and many other topics. It brings together
works on Alain Badiou, Giorgio Agamben, Ernesto Laclau, Bruno
Latour and Homi Bhabha with works on Whitman, Kant, Martha
Nussbaum, Thomas Pogge, Onora O'Neill and Philippe Van Parijs. The
book engages in the new dialogue on cosmopolitanism from a variety
of outlooks. It advances that dialogue and problematizes it through
as yet unexplored paths. Its chapters respond to the intricacies of
current discourses on cosmopolitanism and related notions and take
into account both affirmative and negative stances to
cosmopolitanism and its educational significance. Overall, the book
relies on such stances as background material in order to transcend
them and offer fresh perspectives on cosmopolitan stakes. It makes
use of a recent tendency in political philosophical and
cultural-critical debates that opens a possibility of more nuanced
approaches to old '-isms'.
