Cases of famine, governmental overreach, political abuse and
neglect persist even in today's globalised world. Corporate
malfeasance, disregard of the environment, and blatant ignorance of
the instigators of disasters large and small also continue to
register high human costs. In trying to address this, theorists
have attempted to elucidate a global ethics that would prescribe
courses of actions even when individual and direct causal agency
cannot be identified. Following in this tradition, Eddy M.
Souffrant explores the concept of a global development ethics,
taking in topics including famine, immigration, capitalism, race,
and technology. He demonstrates that defining the constituents of a
global development ethics depends on a successful analysis of the
theoretical and practical structures that cause such global and
seemingly intractable conditions. He challenges existing
conceptions of global justice and argues for a theory of global
ethics that relies on our commonality, such that enables us to
welcome the `other', thereby fuelling our recognition of the
inequalities that motivate prospective development projects. Ideal
for advanced-level students in global ethics, global justice and
development studies, this text articulates a vital new ethics of
human development.
