I just wanted to qualify my use of the word "cosmopolitanism", which, when taken to the extreme, ends up as globalism and abolition of all local identity and tradition.
Here is a blog article I wrote last month when considering an essay by Novalis (Christenheit oder Europa) and a scholarly article about that essay: https://sarumuse.wordpress.com/2018/02/19/cosmopolitanism/
I think all this helps to arrive at a better understanding of contemporary questions of inclusivity and identity politics. I don't have all the answers, but I am working on it...
