description

This chapter clarifies the new concept of cosmopolitanism as nonrelationism and embeds it in the academic debate. In defence of the new concept, it clarifies how personal relationships can be valued without treating them as a basis for justifying special responsibilities between related individuals. The argument distinguishes between different kinds of responsibilities based on a responsibility framework developed from conceptual considerations of Hart and O’Neill as well as Pettit and Goodin. It reveals that not all kinds of responsibilities are equally relevant with regard to matters of justice.
