Place and Cosmopolitanism

From Professor Kozlowski Lectures by Benjamin Kozlowski

About this episode

Professor Kozlowski explores various political perspectives including Utilitarianism, Cosmopolitanism, and Native American views on land and community.

Today Professor Kozlowski investigates a grab bag of other political perspectives, including the radical Utilitarianism of Peter Singer's "Famine, Affluence, and Morality," the Cosmopolitanism prescribed by Martha Nussbaum, and the Native American perspectives on land, community, and individuality discussed by V. F. Cordova and Ted Jojola in their writings. It may not add up to a cogent perspective, but it should offer some enlightening critique of the dominant systems we've discussed so far.
