Issue Topic: Global Gender Justice
Guest Editor: Alison M. Jaggar, University of Colorado
Issues of global gender justice, because of their virtually universal
extent, possess great moral and political urgency. As a result,
they present new challenges in political philosophy, both with respect
to specific ways in which contemporary global institutions and policies
have disparate and burdensome consequences for specific groups of
women and with respect to questions of how elements of gender bias
may affect central categories used in discussions of global justice.
The papers in this volume address many dimensions of these challenges.
Contributors include Brooke Ackerly, Linda Alcoff, Gillian Brock,
Thom Brooks, Ann Ferguson, Alison Jaggar, Eva Kittay, Ruth Macklin,
Vandana Shiva, and Rachel Silvey. A critical introduction by Professor
Jaggar is included.
