Description

Explore the fundamental questions of human morality and social responsibility with A Minimally Good Life. Published by Oxford University Press, this work examines what we owe to one another based on our shared humanity. It addresses the tension between different global standards, such as the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which often provide different answers to what individuals can rightfully claim. This book investigates the different perspectives regarding what a just society must provide for its members. By looking at the varying accounts of global obligations, the text argues that our concern for our common humanity should lead to a specific standard of support. It provides a framework for understanding what the international community must help people secure to ensure they can live a life that meets a basic, meaningful standard. This is an essential read for anyone interested in ethics, political philosophy, and the moral duties we hold toward others in a globalized world.
