The Scope of Principles of Justice

(Julian Culp/Ulrike Meyer)

Political philosophers defend highly divergent views concerning the scope of principles of justice.  Some restrict the application of principles of justice to the legal relations between persons, which are characterized by the use of coercion.  Others argue that principles of justice are to be applied to all relationships between persons, even if these relations lack any type of institutionalization.  A third position between these two extremes limits the applicability and thus the scope of justice principles to the existence of relationships of power between persons.

This panel aims at examining the moral significance of institutionalized relations between persons for the justification of a conception of the scope of principles of justice.  Are such principles limited in scope by state boundaries, or do they also apply internationally, transnationally, and/or globally?  And if they do apply internationally, transnationally, and/or globally, how, if at all, should their content be adapted?  At the limit, is it possible to draw conclusions regarding the systematic relationship between the conditions of application, the content, and the normative sources of the principles of justice?
