Description
In this incisive work of global ethics, Peter Singer argues that globalization has made national borders increasingly inadequate as boundaries for moral responsibility. He examines four urgent challenges—the shared atmosphere, the consequences of economic globalization, the need for international law, and the possibility of a worldwide community—showing how each demands cooperation that transcends individual states. Drawing on philosophy, politics, and contemporary world affairs, Singer explores what it means to recognize Earth as one interconnected and fragile home, and challenges readers to consider the obligations we owe to people everywhere.
