Resumen

In today’s political conjuncture, Kant’s cosmopolitan thinking stands in some unique relation to his notion of the sublime. The present paper aims to articulate (i) how the Kantian sublime is re-appropriated in analyses of the mediated images of social disasters in this century, (ii) how a cosmopolitan thinking can be registered as an aesthetic experience which restores the lost moral dimension of the classical sublime and lastly (iii) what constitutes the nature of this new cosmopolitan structure that is temporary and different in its occurrence from what is suggested by many forms of new cosmopolitanism(s) in the discourse of social and political sciences.

Key words: cosmopolitanism, Kant, sublime, distant suffering.
