Produktbeschreibung
The first introduction to Global Solidarity Exploring the theory and practice of resisting and overcoming social divisions, /Global Solidarity/adopts a radical humanist perspective to the possibility of building a solidaristic global community. It offers a novel path into recent debates about our cosmopolitan future, bringing together various theoretical and socio-political aspects of globalization, such as global justice, cosmopolitan democracy, global civil society and world culture. In focusing on the normative goal of global solidarity, Wilde connects the different strands of the new cosmopolitanism by analysing the ways in which people have mobilised together to struggle for ever-widening social inclusion since the middle of the 19th century. While old forms of solidarity, centred on labour or community, have frayed, new forms arise that open up the possibility of achieving social solidarity on a global scale.
