ETHICS, HUMAN RIGHTS, AND GLOBAL POLITICAL THOUGHT

Series Editors: Sebastiano Maffettone and Aakash Singh Rathore

Center for Ethics & Global Politics, Luiss University, Rome

Whereas the interrelation of ethics and political thought has been recognized since the dawn of political reflection, over the last sixty years roughly since the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights we have witnessed a particularly turbulent process of globalizing the coverage and application of that interrelation. At the very instant the decolonized globe consolidated the universality of the sovereign nation-state, that sovereignty and the political thought that grounded it was eroded and outstripped, not as in eras past, by imperial conquest and instruments of war, but rather by instruments of peace (charters, declarations, treaties, conventions), and instruments of commerce and communication (multinational enterprises, international media, global aviation and transport, internet technologies).

Has political theory kept apace with global political realities? Can ethical reflection illuminate the murky challenges of real global politics?

This Routledge book series Ethics, Human Rights and Global Political Thought addresses these crucial questions by bringing together outstanding monographs and anthologies that deal with the intersection of normative theorizing and political realities with a global focus. Treating diverse topics by means of interdisciplinary techniques including philosophy, political theory, international relations and human rights theories, and global and postcolonial studies the books in the Series present up-to-date research that is accessible, practical, yet scholarly.
