    Abstract

    Chapter 1 presents the overall aim of this work, its methodology and potential implications in dealing more efficiently with global issues such as territorial disputes; pandemics; arms, drug and human trafficking; terrorism; the flow of refugees; and war. It defines the meaning of sovereignty and cosmopolitanism and the reasons why they can (and should) operate together. It also introduces the notions of pluralism of pluralisms and multidimensional analysis. In short, the goal is to offer a common conceptual ground for discussion. This chapter exposes the biases in the legal, political and international relations fields in regard to the relationship between sovereignty and cosmopolitanism. By reimagining the perception about how cosmopolitanism and sovereignty can embrace and acknowledge pluralities, it is possible to shift from an exclusive to an inclusive paradigm in the legal, political and international relations disciplines that can facilitate the cooperation of local, regional and international agents in finding mutually beneficial solutions to common problems.
