Product Description What obligations do wealthy people have to ensure that the world's poor achieve a quality of life that is recognizably human? This is the fundamental question of international distributive justice and one that has only been seriously debated in the last 25 years. This book analyzes the relative merits of the core moral perspectives framing the debates, including the universalist, nationalist, patriotism and relativist. | ||

A gritty compelling read...keep your eye on this guy! I found this book surprizingly refreshing, a book of kindness and wonder, a promise of perceived threat, yet counterbalanced by the thoughtful, the insightful, the moving and dramatic. Charles Jones seems to know his stuff and in Global Justice he gets a chance to shine. Those who are interested in the issues of cosmoplitanism, keep your eye on this guy. Well done Mr Jones! | ||
