“Patriotism and Cosmopolitanism” and “Education and Cosmopolitanism”

In the first article, “Patriotism and Cosmopolitanism” by Martha Nussbaum, she clearly states that she is a supporter of more cosmopolitanism in education. As she goes on to support her argument, she states four main points. These points include, first having the cosmopolitanism educational system help us discover more about ourselves; second is to be an international corporation to be able to solve problems; third is to realize the issues at hand of other struggling countries; and fourth is understanding that we need to watch our actions because what we do affects others. In the second article, “Education and Cosmopolitanism” by Cynthia Scott, the author created a response towards Nussbaum and her argument. Even though throw many of the points she agrees, her questioning towards some the ideas and how the process will happen is debatable for herself.
