Could global government be the answer to global poverty and starvation?
Cosmopolitan thinkers challenge the widely held belief that we owe more to our co-citizens than to those in other countries.

Cabrera considers both the views of those political philosophers who say we have much stronger obligations to help our co-citizens than foreigners and those cosmopolitans who say our duties are equally strong to each but resist restructuring.
