Pogge: What is Global Justice?

Thomas Pogge (Yale Univ. - Philosophy) has posted, in Spanish, What is Global Justice? (Revista de Economía Institucional, Vol. 10, No. 19, Second Semester 2008 ). Here's the abstract:

The increasingly widespread expression "global justice" marks an important shift in the structure of moral discourse. Traditionally, international relations were seen as sharply distinct from domestic justice. First, it focused on interactions among states, and later, evaluated the design of a national institutional order in light of its effects on citizens. Such institutional moral analysis is becoming applied to supranational institutional arrangements, nowadays more pervasive and important for the life prospects of individuals. The traditional lens suggested fair agreements among states. The new lens shows that the global institutional order is unfair because it enriches elites in both rich and poor countries and perpetuates the oppression and impoverishment of the majority.
