Cosmopolitics and Political Philosophy of the Future

While in current parlance, 'cosmopolitan' usually connotes 'worldly', suggesting a local familiarity with culture elsewhere, for Kant, it has more in common with the image of a 'global village', i. e. with the concept of a world-wide social organization.  Accordingly, as Globalization continues, the principles of Cosmopolitics as a Political Philosophy of the Future are beginning to more concretely emerge.  Thus, for example, the ruling body is likely to resemble a United Nations with universal jurisdictional powers, a primary aim of which is the overcoming of decades, centuries, and even millennia of divisions. A significant dimension of such a goal is likely to be the cultivation of Cosmocitizens, via Geopolitical programs, in which even Nietzsche's projection of experimental Miscegenation, not to breed a 'superior race', but to neutralize chronic racial and ethnic hate, might find a place.
