The concept of cosmopolitanism, rooted in the philosophy of Diogenes of Sinope from the third century BCE, emphasizes being a global citizen over national identity. This ideal encourages individuals to prioritize their connection to humanity as a whole, transcending borders and cultural affiliations. The historical context provides a rich backdrop for exploring the evolution of this worldview and its relevance in contemporary society.
