| Studies the rise of national philosophies and their impact on cosmopolitanism and nationalism The idea of national philosophy carries in it a strange contradiction. On the one hand, we are accustomed to speaking of 'German philosophy' or 'American philosophy'. On the other hand, philosophy has always pictured itself to be the project of universality, and has presented itself as something that takes place outside or beyond the national - something that is ultimately detachable from language, culture and history. So what does assigning a nationality to philosophy mean? And what role do nationalism and cosmopolitanism play in these national philosophies? Building on Jacques Derrida's unpublished seminars on philosophical nationalism, Oisín Keohane claims that national philosophies are a variant of some form of cosmo-nationalism - a strain of nationalism that utilises, rather than opposes, ideas in cosmopolitanism to advance the aims of one particular nation. Oisín Keohane is a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Dundee.
