Pressestimmen

 

Global Justice the basics stands as the 'go-to text' for a brief, basic, but high-level and well-informed introduction to its topic. Social and legal theorists will learn from its discussion of actual global justice movements, and scholars and students of social movements will gain a comprehensive overview of the major perspectives and debates. John Foran, University of California, Santa Barbara, USA

This is an exceptional volume, which collects in a very short book a great deal of wisdom about the theory and practice of global justice. Williams and Death have written a book which connects philosophical reflection with activist energy - to the benefit of both. Michael Blake, University of Washington, USA
