This book examines the limits of cosmopolitanism in contemporary
literature. In a world in which engagement with strangers is no
longer optional, and in which the ubiquitous demands of
globalization clash with resurgent localist and nationalist
sentiments, cosmopolitanism is no longer merely a
horizon-broadening aspiration but a compulsory order of things to
which we are all conscripted. Focusing on literary texts from such
diverse locales as England, Algeria, Sweden, former Yugoslavia, and
the Sudan, the essays in this collection interrogate the tensions
and impasses in our prison-house of cosmopolitanism.
