Simon Caney Libros

Which political principles should govern global politics? In his new book, Simon Caney engages with the work of philosophers, political theorists, and international relations scholars in order to examine some of the most pressing global issues of our time. Are there universal civil, political, and economic human rights? Should there be a system of supra-state institutions? Can humanitarian intervention be justified?

Exploring the complexities of national identity and international obligations, this book delves into the moral legitimacy of nationality claims. It examines whether moral responsibilities are strictly transnational or if they extend to fellow citizens, raising critical questions about the balance between national loyalty and global ethics.
