Who ought to do what, and for whom, if global justice is to
progress? In this collection of essays on justice beyond borders,
Onora O'Neill criticises theoretical approaches that concentrate on
rights, yet ignore both the obligations that must be met to realise
those rights, and the capacities needed by those who shoulder these
obligations. She notes that states are profoundly anti-cosmopolitan
institutions, and that even those committed to justice and
universal rights often lack the competence and the will to secure
them, let alone to secure them beyond their borders. She argues for
a wider conception of global justice, in which obligations may be
held either by states or by competent non-state actors, and in
which borders themselves must meet standards of justice. This rich
and wide-ranging collection will appeal to a broad array of
academic researchers and advanced students of political philosophy,
political theory, international relations and philosophy of law.
