Is Global Citizenship Possible?

Course Description (Combined)

Prerequisite: A grade of C- or better in any WCIL 2 course or HON 1000

This course addresses “global citizenship” by focusing on two questions: (1) Given that cultural diversity is a key characteristic of our species, how can we organize political communities so different people with different beliefs and behaviors feel a part of the same political community? and (2) How can we address the political and economic disparities that pervade our current global networks in order to build broader political communities that unite through shared interests and hopes rather than common hatreds?
