According to the author: "The article aims to analyze in depth the meanings of global citizenships in order to characterize the pedagogical practices of what is known as education for global citizenship. After a brief analysis of the different stages that education for development has gone through, from the assistencialist approach of the 50s to education for global citizenship, we study different perspectives of cosmopolitanism: a vision from the field of ethics, mainly from Martha Nussbaum's perspective that talks about cosmopolitan abilities, from politics, that has democratic proposals such as David Held's, critical perspectives as Boaventura de Souza Santos' ones, and the sociological perspective that allows us to identify intercultural communicative processes where the cosmopolitan view is produced, according to Ulrick Beck's or Gerald Delanty's words. After this, we conclude with a discussion about how to encourage education for develpment spaces that foster global citizenship."
