Description: This book provides a comprehensive overview of the meaning of cosmopolitanism, and world citizenship, in the history of western political thought, and in the evolution of international politics since 1500.
Review Quotes: "April Carter seeks to trace the historical evolution of the concept and outline its current manifestations in world politics, as well as explore its philosophical foundations and challenges. Divided into three parts, this ambitious book militates against coherent summarization as its engages an extraordinarily wide range of issues, ideas, and practices.."
