Cosmopolitanisation definition

Cosmopolitanisation in this sense means latent cosmopolitanism, unconscious cosmopolitanism, passive cosmopolitanism which shapes reality as side effects of global trade or global threats such as climate change, terrorism or financial crisis. My life, my body, my „individual existence‟ become part of another world, of foreign cultures, religions, histories and global interdependencies, without my realising or expressly wishing it. (Beck, 2006a, p. 19)
