Faculty
Trajectories of Cosmopolitanism
2009-2011
Featuring: Bruce Robbins, Saskia Sassen and many others. The first two lectures of this series have been jointly arranged with the Public Policy Lecture Series at Reed College.

Beginning in February 2009, PCPH is hosting an ambitious series of faculty workshops and public lectures by leading scholars on the subject of "Cosmopolitanism." How and when do we form social relations, loyalties, and meanings that are global in scope? What is the relationship of these cosmopolitanisms to traditional borders of nation, race, or religion? What do they mean for international community? domestic politics, war, religion, capitalism, or the mass media? The questions will be explored by a distinguished group of scholars from a wide range of disciplines.
