Zusatztext 'Essential reading for any student or researcher seeking a comprehensive and elegantly lucid guide through the maze of issues that make up cosmopolitan politics. Criticisms of cosmopolitan theorizing are sympathetically aired and cogently dismissed! leaving the reader in no doubt as to the degree to which political thinking today must necessarily be global in context and content.' Mark Evans! University of Wales! Swansea! UK 'A remarkable critique of contemporary politics. And! at the same time! a dream for a better world written in the rigorous language of political theory.' Professor Daniele Archibugi! Italian National Research Council and Harvard University! USA 'Hayden has written a timely book dealing with a global ethical position about cosmopolitan values.
