Eminent Contributors Look At The Present And Future Of Cosmopolitanism And Its Relationship To Nationalism.Nationalism And The Nationstate Have Recently Come Under Siege, Their Political Dominance Gradually Eroding Under The Strain Of Such Forces As Ethnic Strife, Religious Fundamentalism, Homogenizing Global Capitalism, And The Unprecedented Movements Of People And Populations Across Cultures, Countries, Even Cyberspace. A Resurgent Cosmopolitanism Has Emerged As A Viable And Alternative Political Project. In Cosmopolitics, A Renowned Group Of Scholars And Political Theorists Offers The First Sustained Examination Of That Project, Its Inclusive And Often Universalist Claims, And Its Tangled And Sometimes Volatile Relationship To Nationalism.Understood Generally As A Fundamental Commitment To The Interests Of Humanity, Traditional Cosmopolitanism Has Been Criticized As A Privileged Position, An Aloof Detachment From The Obligations And Affiliations That Constrain Nationbound Lives And Move People To Political Action. Yet, As These Essays Make Clear, Contemporary Cosmopolitanism Arises Not From A Disengagement, But Rather From Welldefined Cultural, Historical, And Political Contexts. The Contributors Explore A Feasible Cosmopolitanism Now Beginning To Emerge, And Consider The Question Of Whether It Can Or Will Displace Nationalism, Which Needs To Be Rethought Rather Than Dismissed As Obsolete.Intellectually Provocative And Erudite, This Interdisciplinary Volume Presents A Diverse Array Of Critical Perspectives, Assessing Both The Ideal Enterprise And The Current Realities Of The Rapidly Developing Cosmopolitical Movement.
