Domination and Global Political Justice - Conceptual, Historical and Institutional Perspectives (Hardcover)

Domination consists in subjection to the will of another and manifests itself both as a personal relation and as a structural phenomenon which serves as the context for such relations of power. The revival of the republican tradition of thought has again brought domination to the foreground as a central political concern; however, most of this discussion has been limited to the context of domestic politics, and the republican debate has not taken into account the myriad alternative ways of conceptualizing domination as a political problem. The purpose of this collection is to extend the focus of the debate about domination to the global level and to consider how other streams in political theory and nearby disciplines can enrich and expand upon the republican tradition's contributions to the debate. The volume brings together research by leading republican scholars, critical theorists, and liberals on conceptual, historical, and institutional questions of cross-border domination and the political philosophy of global justice, focusing on such problems as imperialism, racism, and the subjection of indigenous peoples.Including work by rising scholars alongside the canonical pieces A Republican Law of Peoples by Philip Pettit (with a new appendix for this volume) and Liberal Imperialism and the Dilemma of Development by Thomas McCarthy, Domination and Global Political Justice delineates the parameters of the debate, and will be useful for political theorists, philosophers, historians, legal theorists, and international relations scholars.
