- PHIL 551: Cosmopolitamism
- Course Description: This seminar studies the meaning, intellectual strengths and weaknesses, and practical viability of cosmopolitanism. The course has a double focus: the first is normative: cosmopolitanism as an ethics and political philosophy; the second is ontological: cosmopolitanism as a theory of human nature and a theory of nature and world. In pursuit of this focus, the course will examine cosmopolitanism in three different time periods: post-Aristotelian philosophy, especially stoicism; modern European philosophy, especially Kant; and 20th century and contemporary analyses of cosmopolitanism in an age of globalization.
