This conference brings together an international group of scholars who are rethinking the concept of "cosmopolitanism" for our times.
About this Event

What does it mean to be a “citizen” of the world today? Cosmopolitanism is among the issues that, while never going away entirely, seem to resurface periodically with a difference—with renewed urgency, novel ramifications, and new challenges. This conference, jointly organized by and the , brings together contributors to the forthcoming Oxford Handbook of Cosmopolitanism and marks the culmination of the Reimagining Cosmopolitanism project, which set out to undertake a fruitful rethinking of the concept for our times.

As part of the project, the research team commissioned the Delhi-based Raqs Media Collective to create a new work in response to the themes addressed in the volume. Their Neubauer Collegium exhibition, Cavalcade, will open as part of the conference. Learn more and register .
