Description: In an age marked by global hegemony and festering civilization clashes, this text charts a path toward a cosmopolitan democracy respectful of local differences. The main emphasis of the study is on linkages or meditation, arranged along the two axes of "local-global" and "self-other" relations.
Synopsis: In an age marked by global hegemony and festering civilization clashes, Fred Dallmayr's Achieving Our World charts a path toward a cosmopolitan democracy respectful of local differences. Dallmayr draws upon and develops insights from a number of fields: political theory, the study of international politics, recent Continental philosophy, and an array of critical cultural disciplines to illustrate and elucidate his thesis. In Achieving Our World, Dallmayr contends that a genuinely global and plural democracy and 'civic culture' is the only viable and promising path for humankind in the new millennium.
