The idea of global citizenship is that human beings are "citizens of the world." Whether or not we are global citizens is a topic of great dispute, however those who take part in the debate agree that a global citizen is a member of the wider community of humanity, the world, or a similar whole which is wider than that of a nation-state or other political community of which we are normally thought to be citizens. Through four main sections, the contributors to Global Citizenship discuss global challenges and attempt to define the ways in which globalization is changing the world in which we live. Offering a breadth of coverage to the core rheme of the individual in a global world, Global Citizenship combines two factors-the idea of global responsibility and the development of institutional structures through which this responsibility can be exercised.

The cosmopolites are literally "citizens of the world," from the Greek word kosmos, meaning "world," and polites, or "citizen." Garry Davis, aka World Citizen No. 1, and creator of the World Passport, was a former Broadway actor and World War II bomber pilot who renounced his American citizenship in 1948 as a form of protest against nationalism, sovereign borders, and war. Today there are cosmopolites of all stripes, rich or poor, intentional or unwitting, from 1-percenters who own five passports thanks to tax-havens to theBidoon, the stateless people of countries like the United Arab Emirates. Journalist Atossa Abrahamian, herself a cosmopolite, travels around the globe to meet the people who have come to embody an increasingly fluid, borderless world. Along the way you are introduced to a colorful cast of characters, including passport-burning atheist hackers, the new Knights of Malta, California libertarian "seasteaders," who are residents of floating city-states,Bidoons, who have been forced to be citizens of the island nation Comoros, entrepreneurs in the business of buying and selling passports, cosmopolites who live on a luxury cruise ship calledThe World, and shady businessmen with ties to Syrian dictator Bashar al Assad.

The Global Citizen: Volume I: Issue 1 (Black and White Student Edition) The Global Citizen is an independent student-run organization whose primary purpose is to provide one of the few venues in the world through which the world's young scholars can publish exemplary work pertaining to contentious issues in international affairs. The Citizen is headquartered at Miami University of Ohio, where it is led by a student staff that makes all administrative and editorial decisions. With the advising of university faculty and professionals in the field, The Citizen seeks to publish a journal of academic scholarship to be shared with the global community. The Citizen is devoted to publishing particularly exceptional work submitted primarily by undergraduate students from all corners of the globe. The ultimate intent is to foster global citizenship among young scholars by encouraging a holistic view of world conflicts and an ever-broadening understanding of how different contexts produce different viewpoints. In addition to providing the international academic community with novel perspectives from the world's brightest young minds, The Citizen seeks to contribute to international scholarship and development in three ways. First, the Journal is designed to provide an alternative voice in the realm of research and academia and to serve as a useful research tool for academics and global scholars worldwide to broaden their opinion horizons and understandings of what the younger generation of leaders thinks. Second, the facilitation of the rigorous review process for the selection of exemplary pieces provides the student-led editing staff with an invaluable exercise to hone their editing skills. Third, The Global Citizen is on track to becoming an international company. Such an endeavor affords the staff with the unique opportunity to run an international enterprise at a young age, effectively developing their understanding of how to expand a business into emerging world markets, language competencies, management skills and awareness of world issues. As the world becomes more globalized each day, these are the requisite tools for future leaders to have.

In 1948, former Broadway actor and WWII B-17 bomber pilot Garry Davis renounced his U.S.nationality as a personal action for world peace and declared himself a World Citizen.

Passport to Freedom shows how World Citizenship can be a powerful moral and political tool that reveals the living reality of One World. But it is more. It is a sourcebook of theory and practice that can empower the individual citizen allied with humanity. Through numerous examples, Davis proves that world citizenship is not merely a noble theory. It works. Thousands of people have used the tools described in this book to enter and leave more and more countries and successfully challenge national authorities around the world. As an inspiring story and practical guide, this ground-breaking book will provide readers with their own "PASSPORT TO FREEDOM."

A globalized world places new demands on us as citizens. Global Citizen – Challenges and Responsibility in an Interconnected World gives insight and perspectives on what it means to be a citizen in a global world from Norway's most distinguished scholars. It poses and answers important questions, such as which duties and rights do we have as citizens in a globalized world; which institutions are just and sustainable, and how can a global ethic and a global worldview be reconciled with the fact that the lives of the greater part of the Earth’s population is still local? Global Citizen – Challenges and Responsibility in an Interconnected World draws on insights from philosophy, jurisprudence, theology, and the social sciences to shed light on this manifold and important topic, with relevance for policy makers, stakeholders, academics, but most important, for us as citizens who need to take both a political and personal decision on how to live as a citizen in a global world.
