This book visits contemporary British children's and YA fiction alongside cosmopolitanism, exploring the notion of the nation within the context of globalization, transnationalism and citizenship. By resisting globalization's dehumanizing conflation, cosmopolitanism offers an ethical, humanitarian, and political outlook of convivial planetary community. McCulloch addresses how children's and YA fiction imagines not only the nation but the world beyond, disrupting binary divisions through a cosmopolitical outlook. The texts visited envision British society's position and role within a global arena of issues, including global conflicts, gender, racial politics, ecology, and climate change.
Fiona McCulloch is currently an independent scholar and was Lynn Wood Neag Distinguished Visiting Professor in British Literature at the University of Connecticut, 2015.
