En savoir plus sur le livre
This collection of essays presents insightful discussions on the significant challenges facing citizenship theory and practice in a globalized, fragmented, and multicultural context. The traditional view of citizenship tied to shared ethnic, religious, or cultural identities is increasingly irrelevant, especially as international migration and mobility rise, alongside the pervasive influence of a global economy and mass media that transcend national borders. Key topics include the ethical and practical implications of patriotism in a global context, the role of conscience claims in diverse societies, citizen complicity in injustices, and the potential for practicing Muslims to accept a liberal constitutional order. Despite the diverse philosophical traditions represented—such as liberalism, pragmatism, Confucianism, Platonism, Thomism, and Islam—contributors agree that the crisis of modern citizenship reflects a deeper crisis in the ethical values that shape social life. This volume stands out for its combination of rigorous ethical analysis and a wide range of philosophical perspectives. Notably, chapters like “What is the use of an Ethical Theory of Citizenship?” and “An Ethical Defense of Citizenship” are available as open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
