cosmopolitism

In Martha Nussbaum's article regarding cosmopolitism she makes 4 arguments. The first, is about learning more about ourselves. The second, is that to solve problems, international cooperation is necessary. The third, is that we need to recognize the issues that other countries struggle with around the world. The last, is that we need to recognize that what we do affects others, so we need to watch what we are doing. I agree with Nussbaum's article we need to be more aware of everyone else. In Cynthia Scott's article she is responding to the article Nussbaum makes in her article. While Scott agrees that changes need to be made, she does not agree with how Nussbaum thinks we should go about it. She thinks Nussbaum's plan is too extreme and makes some opposing arguments.
