Justice beyond borders : a global political theory / Simon Caney. - Oxford ; New York : Oxford University Press, 2005. - 319 pages ; 25 cm

Universalism -- Civil and political justice -- Distributive justice -- Political structures -- Just war -- Humanitarian intervention.
"Justice Beyond Borders examines which political principles should govern global politics. It explores the ethical issues that arise at the global level and addresses such questions as: Are there universal values? If so, what are they? What human rights, if any, are there? Are there global principles of distributive justice? Should there be a system of supra-state institutions? Is national self-determination defensible? When, if ever, may political regimes wage war? Is humanitarian intervention justified?" "Justice Beyond Borders outlines and defends an egalitarian liberal brand of cosmopolitanism to address these questions. It maintains that there are universal principles. It argues, moreover, that these include universal civil and political human rights. It also defends the application of global principles of distributive justice."--Jacket.
