O MODELO DE CIDADANIA COSMOPOLITA DE ADELA CORTINA, E SUA INTERFACE COM AS POLÍTICAS SOCIAIS

Abstract

This thesis investigates how Adela Cortina Orts theory about the cosmopolitan citizenship foments a new political identity through social policies. In this sense, this perspective will be analyzed according to a sociological outlook that takes into account the recognition of typical ideal structures that can be identified in relation between Orts theory and the social policies relations. In this frame of reference, considering the emergence of the historical sociological context in which the world new reality lies in, it is possible to identify the marshallian paradigmatic of citizenship. This concept is applied as a sociological reference for the establishment of a civic phenomenon that articulates the individuals to their local communities according to a political apparatus such as social policies. Therefore, I will illustrate Ort s concept of cosmopolitan citizenship by identifying how this theory aspects can connect the individuals to their political communities, through social policies developed by an active civil society. This experience occurs in relation to the recognition that these policies must be guided to the development of a civic phenomenon which contemplates, at the same time, the feeling of belonging and the achievement of a social status as citizen concept. And, this circumstance can only take place in a democratic social regime that intersects in a society project, several ideals of a good life, independently from the ethnical cultural origins as opposed to our current reality vis-à-vis hegemonic society .
