El sueño de una utopía cosmopolita y la idea de estar localmente situado pero globalmente conectado nunca ha parecido más plausible que hoy. La globalidad ha hecho que el gran supermercado de bienes, decoración del hogar y artículos exóticos esté disponible localmente para los consumidores, independientemente de su ubicación geográfica. En cierto modo, el Cosmopolitismo ha actuado como una fuerza emancipadora capaz de superar las desigualdades globales. Sin embargo, las recientes tendencias económicas globales sugieren una naturaleza contradictoria del “Capitalismo-domada-cosmopolitismo”. A través del estudio de la novela de Okey Ndibe Foreign Gods, Inc. (2014), el artículo argumenta que el capitalismo, que es un elemento intrínseco en los procesos globales, tiende a reproducir divisiones, que el cosmopolitismo pretende disolver. El artículo incluso aborda los matices del cosmopolitismo estético-cultural y su papel hacia la formación de la identidad. El análisis del texto sugiere que existe una diferencia entre el “cosmopolitismo del tener” y el “cosmopolitismo del ser”.
