About this book
to cultivate deliberative pedagogical encounters in universities. The authors
argue that cosmopolitan education in itself is an act of engaging with strangeness,
otherness, difference and inclusion/exclusion. What follows is the engendering
of inclusive human encounters in which freedom and rationality – guided
by co-operative, co-existential and oppositional acts of resistance – can be exercised.
The chapters centre around the enactment of universal hospitality, unconditional
engagement, difference, intercultural learning, democratic justice and
openness to develop a robust and reflexive defence of cosmopolitan education.
This book will appeal to scholars of cosmopolitan education as well as democratic
and inclusive education.
