Global Citizenship: a critical introduction, by Nigel Dower

from amazon's review: A central tenet of globalization is that we now have all become "citizens of the world." Whether or not we are global citizens is a topic of great dispute, however those who take part in the debate agree that a global citizen is a member of the wider community of humanity, the world or a similar whole which is wider than that of a nation-state. This collection seeks to introduce readers to some of the central issues of this debate. Through four main sections, the contributors discuss global challenges and attempt to define the ways in which globalization is changing the world in which we live. Offering a breadth of coverage to the core theme of the individual in a global world, Global Citizenship combines two factors-the idea of global responsibility and the development of institutional structures though which this responsibility can be exercised.

you can get it on amazon, used, for around $15. Also check out Nigel Dower's other books regarding global citizenship. look at half.com! extremely good deals.
