Recenzii
Gillian Brock's Corruption and Global Justice is an impressively encompassing yet concise work that puts forth a compelling argument as to why addressing corruption is a necessary condition for realizing human rights and achieving the goals of global justice, despite being a problem largely overlooked by academics and actors working towards such goals...Uniquely persuasive in her empirically informed normative methodology are the solutions offered for addressing corruption that work within existing frameworks and human rights practices, and the multi-level approach to assigning such responsibilities, including both remedial and forward-looking responsibilities.
Despite the massive size of the global justice literature, Brock's book is one of the first - perhaps the first - to focus specifically on corruption in relation to global justice. It would be an important work for this reason alone, but it also has many other virtues which should make it the touchstone of the topic going forward ... Brock is correct that corruption is an important problem and that global justice theorists have not given it the attention it deserves. And many of her proposals are worth taking seriously ... the topic is ripe for further work, and Brock is to be commended for bringing it to the table.
...the work is an exemplar of engaged political philosophy for our times and promises to be one which many will find invaluable in getting to grips with this enormously pressing issue
Through the compilation of a broad range of empirical material and extensive references to the literature on corruption, Brock provides a useful overview for the general reader who wishes to become familiar with a multifaceted problem that is rampant in our world.
an invaluable and much-needed contribution to the philosophical and normative literatures on global justice.
A transformative contribution to the field of global justice theory, which links normative discourses on political corruption to an idea of global justice. The work represents a path-breaking contribution to the field of global justice for its treatment of corruption as a core concern for the discipline, not simply a practical obstacle to be overcome. Corruption and Global Justice succeeds in opening space for the kind of critical, philosophically grounded engagement that the pressing problem of corruption demands.
Corruption and Global Justice (2023) is a timely discussion on corruption. As Brock points out, this has been a neglected issue in political philosophy, even though its existence is a constraint on realizing many justice-related goals. The book tackles the important questions of what ought to be done about corruption, who ought to do it, and how responsibility should be shared. ... This is a timely and important book, that focuses on answering three questions: what ought to be done about corruption, who ought to do it, and how responsibility should be shared.
Corruption and Global Justice makes a compelling argument as to why international normative political theory should pay more attention to corruption, why different actors and institutions have global justice obligations to address the problem of corruption, and how - by bringing together political theory and empirical political science - we can move forward in this herculean task.
Gillian Brock admirably confronts normative political theory's longstanding neglect of global corruption. ... Brock's execution is beautiful-robust theory buttressed by compelling theoretical examples. She shows how problem-oriented work in contemporary theory can illuminate big global issues.
In Corruption and Global Justice, Gillian Brock fills this lacuna by considering the following questions: What ought we to do about global corruption? And how ought we to distribute these forward-looking responsibilities to address corruption? ... I recommend the monograph to global justice scholars, political philosophers, and ethicists, along with anyone working on empirically informed philosophy. ... Corruption and Global Justice greatly advances the global justice literature. It turns our eyes to a grave global problem, engages in robust philosophical analysis, and draws upon a wide range of empirical evidence. And as more philosophers begin to explore corruption, her monograph will without a doubt be a touchstone.
