PEOPLE WITHOUT BORDERS – Becoming Members of Global Communities

Author: Xiao-lei Wang & Ronan Bernas

ISBN: 978-1-62520-016-7

Published: 2014

Description

This book examines the meaning of global citizenship by exploring a self-understanding that focuses on the dynamic process of becoming citizens of the world. The authors reflect on their own global experiences from different angles: personal, intergenerational, philosophical, metaphorical, and educational. Through this multi-perspective reflection, the authors offer a nuanced conceptualization of global citizenship that transcends the artificiality of national boundaries. The purpose of the book is to encourage readers to move away from the mindset of “we and the other,” and move toward the direction of “we,” that is, we are all connected, at the same time affecting and being affected by the other and the events around us. As a result of this dynamic process, we change. Only through the articulation of this change and constant self-reflection, can we live meaningfully on “Planet Earth,” the common home of humanity.
