Gould proposes an integrative approach to the core values of democracy, justice, and human rights, looking beyond traditional politics to the social conditions that would realize them. It is of interest to scholars and students of political philosophy, global justice, social and political science, and gender studies.How can we confront the problems of diminished democracy, pervasive economic inequality, and persistent global poverty? Is it possible to fulfill the dual aims of deepening democratic participation and achieving economic justice, not only locally but also globally? Carol C. Gould proposes an integrative and interactive approach to the core values of democracy, justice, and human rights, looking beyond traditional politics to the social conditions that would enable us to realize these aims. Her innovative philosophical framework sheds new light on social movements across borders, the prospects for empathy and solidarity with distant others, and the problem of gender inequalities in diverse cultures, and also considers new ways in which democratic deliberation can be enhanced by online networking and extended to the institutions of global governance. Her book will be of great interest to scholars and upper-level students of political philosophy, global justice, social and political science, and gender studies.Introduction; Part I. A Theoretical Framework: 1. A human rights approach to global justice: elements of theory and practice; 2. A social ontology of human rights; 3. Interpreting freedom dynls0
