Empathie und eigene Sorgen: Wie solidarisch ist unsere Gesellschaft nach außen?

Conceptualising justice beyond national borders represents a major extension of the standard of justice. At the latest since the globalisation debate of the mid-1990s it has been generally recognised that neither questions of international nor of domestic justice can be answered from a national perspective. The classical concept of ‘development aid’ was superseded by the concept of ‘global structural policy’ which features prominently in the reform of supranational institutions such as the World Bank and the IMF. With the rise of the emerging economies, densely populated countries have made efforts to escape the poverty trap, an advance which at the same time represents a challenge for the industrialised countries to arrive at a generalisable regime of resource and energy use. But how extensive is our duty of solidarity? Does the current economic and financial crisis outweigh our responsibility towards others? And which institutions require a policy of international justice in order to achieve their goals?
