         <description><![CDATA[<p>Some relevant links:</p>

<p>The book, through <a href="http://www.powells.com/biblio/1-0393061558-0">Powells</a> (apparently it's cheaper on Amazon though...).</p>

<p>He has his own <a href="http://www.appiah.net/pages/1/index.htm">page</a></p>

<p>The January 1, 2006 Sunday New York Times Magazine featured <a href="http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=FB0812F839540C728CDDA80894DE404482">an article by Appiah</a> taken from the book.  (by subscription only)</p>

<p>He has also been on the radio a lot:</p>

<p>"<a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5168294&ft=1&f=1032">Talk of the Nation</a>" </p>

<p>Minnesota Public Radio's "<a href="http://news.minnesota.publicradio.org/programs/midmorning/listings/mm20060116.shtml">Midmorning</a>" program.  (hour 2; see also relevant links to Appiah's other work)</p>

<p>Dara pointed me toward this review in <em><a href="http://www.thenation.com/doc/20060130/gray">The Nation</a></em></p>]]></description>

         <title>Cosmpolitanism: Ethics in a World of Strangers Reading Group</title>
         <description><![CDATA[<p>I am organizing a one-time discussion of Anthony Appiah's newest book,  <em><a href="http://www.wwnorton.com/orders/wwn/006155.htm">Cosmopolitanism:  Ethics in a World of Strangers</a></em>, starting with this semester's <a href="http://ias.umn.edu/fellows0506.php">IAS fellows</a> and including others who have expressed any vague curiosity about the issue of cosmopolitanism.   The book is not long and doesn't look terribly dense (it's written for a broader public than his previous books).  </p>

<p>Trained as a philosopher with research in moral and political philosophy, Appiah has also published widely in African and African-American studies and in Cultural Studies.  His <em>Cosmopolitanism </em>can be seen as a more extended meditation of some issues in his 2004 <em><a href="http://www.pupress.princeton.edu/titles/7806.html">Ethics of Identity</a>.</em><br />
 <br />
I envision 1-2 hours of conversation about Appiah's ideas as well as their relationship to our current work and our disciplines.  This would allow us to digest the book and get a sense of its scope and relevance beyond our regular lenses. If you  want to join us, do reply directly to me so I can begin coordinating a meeting time.</p>]]></description>
