Trade ReviewChristensen is an excellent guide to the complex moral issues that arise when we shift our attention to the global level. Highly recommended. * Chris Armstrong, University of Southampton, UK *
This excellent textbook addresses some of the most pressing issues of our time with intellectual clarity and moral concern. It is an essential introduction for students of global justice. * Kevin K W Ip, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong *
An excellent book to learn about global justice, from human rights and poverty to trade, migration, climate change, war and intervention - lucid, concise, balanced, systematic, up-to-date and impressively wide-ranging. Christensen succeeds in being very readable and accessible without ever falling prey to Manichean over-simplifications. My students will be reading his book, and thanking him for it. * Paula Casal, Professor at ICREA and Pompeu Fabra University *
