This book defends the case for the expansion of the democratic
model to the global political sphere. Concentrating on the
democratic deficit of international affairs, it examines the nexus
between the phenomenon of international exclusion and the political
response of global democracy. This distinctive position is
developed through a critical survey of the principal theories for
and against global democracy. The main rival narratives (realism,
nationalism, civilizationism, and liberal internationalism) are
rebutted on grounds of failing democratic principles of inclusion.
Based on a notion of interaction-dependent justice, these theories
arguably provide a crucial ideological support to the exclusionary
attitude of the current international system. Going beyond these
exclusionary paradigms, the book defends a model of
cosmo-federalism that is all-inclusive, multilayered and rooted.
The text adopts an interdisciplinary perspective that combines
three areas of scholarship: international political theory,
international relations and political sociology. Within them, a
number of contemporary controversies are analyzed, including the
ethical dispute on global justice, the institutional debate on
supranationalism, and the political discussion on social
emancipatory struggles. From such an interdisciplinary perspective
derives an engaged text that will be of interest to students and
researchers concerned with the key political aspects of the
discussion on globalization and democratic global order.
