Content
Learning Outcome
Critically reflect upon the concept of global justice; Analyze the
role of the States in the achievement of global justice. Identify
and explain the relation between global justice and poverty,
immigration, human trafficking, gender, climate change and military
interventions; Put into perspective the concept of global justice
involved in the topics analyzed; Think about the European Union
responses to the question of global justice;
Learning Outcome
The course is divided
methodologically in three segments to provide a broad view to the
student of the major considerations and topics related to global
justice. Part one (“On general considerations”) make up a
theoretical baseline of the definition and methodology of Global
Justice. Part two (“Major Themes on Global Justice”) defines and
debates the selection of issues related to the course. We pay
special attention to the issue from a European Union perspective.
Part three deals with the discussion and elaboration of European
proposals to implement global justice legal policies. The following
questions will shape this inquiry and will orient the main goals:-
What is justice? Why might it be global in character?- Are states
necessary for the achievement of global justice?- What role can the
European Union play in this topic?- Does the Global order harm the
Poor?- Which is the national responsibility on Global Justice?- Is
law enforcement alone enough to reduce human trafficking?- Can war
be used as Punishment?
