Global Justice and International Economic Institutions

The aim of this event is to help those working on theories of global justice to identify and address specific moral issues that international economic institutions raise. For example: ‘Should the WTO have a role in enforcing labour rights?’; ‘Do economic institutions have a moral duty to mitigate their negative effects on the poor and on the environment?’; ‘Should economic institutions promote equality of opportunity?’; ‘What are the ethical issues relating to currency devaluations?’

These and similar issues have become increasingly salient, both because of advances in the debate on global justice and because the recent economic and financial crisis has emphasised our shared economic vulnerabilities.

Registration and participation in the conference are free of charge. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide financial support for travel or accommodation
