LECTURE: The Myth of global citizenship

“A global citizen cares for real people, not people in the abstract, not humanity in general, but real people to whom he or she makes a pact of solidarity that hardship and difficulty can’t break.”
-Michael Ignatieff, CEU President

“I thought that if there is no single global community than why do we need global citizenship? What for? Should not all state-communities strive for unity? If there is no global community, if every nation-community will strive for its own prosperity and development, then it will undermine the whole global peace.”

-Meerim, AUCA
