An AppraisalStefan-Sebastian MafteiIndex

This useful volume opens up a number of important new debates about Kant’s cosmopolitanism, addressing controversial issues such as the cosmopolitan credentials of the European Union. The contributors are experienced hands and connect central with less-explored facets of Kant’s thought, such as publicity, moral education and the practical realisation of a cosmopolitan condition.
