In a world that is increasingly interconnected, what does it mean to have a home? Is it the place where you were born? The place where you grew up? The place where you live now? Or is it something more than that?

In Citizen of the World, Parag Khanna explores the meaning of home in a globalized world. He travels to twelve cities on six continents, meeting with people from all walks of life to learn how they define their place in the world. Khanna's journey is a fascinating exploration of the human condition and a timely reminder that we are all connected.

The Twelve Cities

Khanna's journey takes him to a diverse range of cities, each with its own unique character and history. He visits:

  • New York City, USA
  • London, UK
  • Paris, France
  • Tokyo, Japan
  • Shanghai, China
  • Mumbai, India
  • Nairobi, Kenya
  • Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
  • Mexico City, Mexico
  • Istanbul, Turkey
  • Cairo, Egypt
  • Cape Town, South Africa

In each city, Khanna meets with people from all walks of life, including immigrants, refugees, expats, and locals. He learns about their experiences of living in a globalized world and how they define their place in it.

The Meaning of Home

Khanna's journey leads him to the that there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of what it means to have a home. For some people, home is the place where they were born. For others, it is the place where they have chosen to live. And for still others, it is a place that they have yet to find.

But no matter where we call home, Khanna argues that we are all citizens of the world. We are all connected to each other, and we all have a responsibility to make the world a better place.

A Timely Reminder

Citizen of the World is a timely reminder that we are all connected. In a world that is increasingly divided, it is more important than ever to remember that we are all part of one human family.

Khanna's book is a powerful and moving testament to the human spirit. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in the meaning of home and the importance of global citizenship.

About the Author

Parag Khanna is a leading global strategist and author. He is a Senior Fellow at the New America Foundation and a Visiting Fellow at the London School of Economics. Khanna is the author of several books on globalization, including The Future of War, The Second World, and Connectography.
