Talk:Global citizenship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

can anyone define globalisation? I do not have an expensive dictionary and using the internet hurts my head too much. i would like to know what major dictionaries like Merriam-Webster say what globalisation is.

[edit] Not too enthusiastic about merging

World citizen is about a political goal to create democratic world institutions of which all earthlings would be citizens. Global citizenship is more vague, it is the feeling to belong to the same world. A merger might confuse those two aspects, they are certainly complementary but are not at the same level. BTW, another article about a close concept is democratic globalization, which has its own approach also. We have here quite a rich topic, and to have three article to show each side of it is quite justified. --Pgreenfinch (talk) 08:20, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

agreed. world citizen and global citizen, while similar sounding seem to be different.Twinscimitars (talk) 14:30, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
