      Cosmopolitanism and

      Forgiveness

      Reframing the Boundaries: Thinking the Political

      Series editors: Alison Assiter and Evert van der Zweerde

      This series aims to mine the rich resources of philosophers in the ‘continental’ tradition for their contributions to thinking the political. It fills a gap in the literature by suggesting that the work of a wider range of philosophers than those normally associated with this sphere of work can be of relevance to the political.
