Global Justice and Our Epochal Mind explores the mind of our epoch,
defined as the period since the Nuremberg Trial and the
establishment of the United Nations in 1945. Xunwu Chen examines
four defining ideas of this epoch-global justice, cosmopolitanism,
crimes against humanity, and cultural toleration-as well as the
structural relationships among these ideas. Chen argues that the
mind of our epoch is essentially the mind of humanity. Its world
view, horizon, standpoint, norms, standards, and vocabularies are
of humanity, by humanity, and for humanity, and all are embodied in
human institutions and practices throughout the globe. Meanwhile,
our epochal mind has a dialectical relationship with particular
cultures bearing normative force. As a metaphysical subjectivity
and substance, humanity is the source of all human values in our
epoch and defines what can and should be human values and virtues.
Humankind, therefore, are a people with socio-political and legal
sovereignty, sharing a common fate. This novel study brings a
cross-cultural approach and will be of great interest to students
and scholars of philosophy, political science, sociology, and the
humanities more broadly.
