Publication

2007.

Summary/Abstract

Both Will Kymlicka (1995) and David Miller (1995) have defended the value of national self-determination and have argued that a properly organised self-determining nation respects rather than undermines the equal treatment of all of its members, including ethnic, religious and cultural minorities. I argue that their respective attempts to defend national self-determination and the equal treatment of all members of the nation are saddled with a serious tension. It is actually quite difficult to coherently argue both that (a) national self-determination fulfils ethically valuable ends, and that (b) a self-determining nation can treat all members equally. The equality-respecting requirement is in tension with the claim that nations secure ethically valuable goods for their members

Global Justice and the Role of Stakeholding / Brooks, Thom

Brooks, Thom	Journal Article
	0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

Summary/Abstract

Most research in global justice considers international distributive justice from a perspective of what duties, if any, affluent states have towards people in severe poverty. The debate usually focuses on whether positive or negative duties are most relevant and how they should be applied. This article challenges this orthodoxy by defending stakeholder theory as a promising new approach overcoming limitations in current debates through promotion of the virtue of stakeholders having a say where they have a stake.
