In this text, Karolina Follis provides a deeply reflexive, firmly-grounded examination of the figure of the East European female kosmopolitka – a woman whose globalist aspirations it is all too easy for the now-postcosmopolitan Euro-American intellectual to dismiss as paradoxically parochial. Critical area studies, Follis’s intervention reminds us, is not about denying other people’s visions of borderlessness, but about attempting a substantive self-critique of our own visions.
