Beschreibung
The book discusses selected issues related to global ethics
and global justice. Among its central topics are: defining
the notions of global ethics and global justice, dimensions
of justice and the questions of universal standards of
justice, moral disagreement and moral dialogue, agents of
global justice, status justice and membership, restitutive
and restorative justice in historical context and context of
communities, the role of reactive moral attitudes (shame,
guilt) in reconciliation, intercultural and interreligious
dialogue, the role of intellectual humility and epistemic
justice, and culture of fear and religious (in)tolerance.
The core unifying theme of the entire book is the focus on
justice (in its various forms) as one of the most
significant ethical challenges of the contemporary world.
