Abstract

The relentless desire of Western states to create true world citizenship is currently the focus of a number of major studies in economics, politics, information sciences as well as philosophy. The challenge of the global village is to find those norms and virtues that will lead us to greater efficiency and interconnectedness. If these norms do not already exist, new values have to be developed in order to reach true global citizenship.
