THE RESPONSIBLE GLOBALIST - HASSAN DAMLUJI KART...

'Thought provoking and well-written... a good read for people who care about solving global
problems. Damluji puts forth ideas that can help make global systems more successful' - Bill
GatesAn incisive  optimistic manifesto for a more inclusive globalismToday  globalism has a bad
reputation. 'Citizens of the world' are depicted as recklessly uninterested in how
international economic networks can affect local communities. Meanwhile  nationalists are often
derided as racists and bigots. But what if the two were not so far apart? What could globalists
learn from the powerful sense of belonging that nationalism has created? Faced with the
injustices of the world's economic and political system  what should a responsible globalist
do?British-Iraqi development expert Hassan Damluji proposes six principles - from changing how
we think about mobility to shutting down tax havens - which can help build consensus for a
stronger globalist identity. He demonstrates that globalism is not limited to 'Davos man' but
is a truly mass phenomenon that is growing fastest in emerging countries. Rather than a
'nowhere' identity  it is a new group solidarity that sits alongside other allegiances.With a
wealth of examples from the United States to India  China and the Middle East  The Responsible
Globalist offers a boldly optimistic and pragmatic blueprint for building an inclusive  global
nation. This will be a century-long project  where success is not guaranteed. But unless we can
reimagine humanity as a single national community  Damluji warns  the gravest threats we face
will not be defeated.
