In this study Martin Hollis argues for an interpretation of 'reason' as putting the common good before one's own. Within that framework he reconstructs the Enlightenment idea of citizens of the world, rationally encountering, and at the same time finding their identity in, their multiple commitments to communities both local and universal.
