While many are born into prosperity, hundreds of millions of people
lead lives of almost unimaginable poverty. Our world remains hugely
unequal, with our place of birth continuing to exert a major
influence on our opportunities. In this accessible book, leading
political theorist Chris Armstrong engagingly examines the key
moral and political questions raised by this stark global divide.
Why, as a citizen of a relatively wealthy country, should you care
if others have to make do with less? Do we have a moral duty to try
to rectify this state of affairs? What does 'global justice' mean
anyway - and why does it matter? Could we make our world a more
just one even if we tried? Can you as an individual make a
difference? This book powerfully demonstrates that global justice
is something we should all be concerned about, and sketches a
series of reforms that would make our divided world a fairer one.
It will be essential introductory reading for students of global
justice, activists and concerned citizens.
