The Cosmopolitan Ethos by Joanna Rozpedowski offers an in-depth analysis of the liberal cosmopolitan paradigm in the context of political organization in a globalized world. The author employs a postmodernist approach to develop a specifically Foucauldian interpretation of international politics and the evolving multilayered global order. The book highlights how Michel Foucault's concepts of power, subjectivity, freedom, resistance, and self-creation can serve as normative support for a cosmopolitan democracy of the 21st century. It examines how the principles of cosmopolitan citizenship gain significance in a time when loyalties are increasingly shifting, identities are porous, and socio-political commitments are weakened. This analysis is particularly aimed at political theorists who wish to think beyond state boundaries and reevaluate concepts of citizenship and governance.
