In a cogent and carefully argued analysis, Richard Shapcott critically examines the theories of cosmopolitanism, communitarianism, realism and pluralism and scrutinises their approaches to the various obligations which members of ''bounded'' communities, primarily nation-states, have to ''outsiders'' and ''foreigners''. He then takes the theoretical approaches in context by discussing the ethics of hospitality and membership of political communities, issues of mutual aid and humanitarianism abroad, the ethics of harm related to \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The emphasis on Kant's harm principle as a method of analysis to determine which communitarian and cosmopolitan parameters are conducive to anti-violence, global justice, and so forth, is rather brilliant and is one of the major contributions this work makes.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eJournal of Democratic Theory\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \"Unfailingly lucid and admirably comprehensive, \u003ci\u003eInternational Ethics\u003c\/i\u003e skilfully guides the reader through the complexities of recent debates on the morality of war and intervention, poverty and social justice, and the rights of asylum seekers and refugees.
