The cosmopolitan imagination: a call for global communication studies
In this presidential address, I make a call to embrace a cosmopolitan imagination. I understand the cosmopolitan imagination as an intellectual vision that recognizes and embraces a global consciousness—the presence and the contributions of scholars from around the world. It is a vision that encourages us to act as members of a global community of communication scholars. I outline why this vision is necessary to further develop and strengthen such a community, and discuss challenges for such a vision given long-standing global, structural disparities as well as the assault on academic freedom.
