20The Theory of Universal Human Rights: A Comment on TalbottHuman Rights Review 9 (2): 157-165. 2008.In this analysis of William Talbott’s important book, I note with appreciation his defense of universal moral principles and of moral justification as a “social project,” his focus on the critique of oppression, and his emphasis on empathic understanding in the account of human rights. I go on to develop some criticisms regarding: 1) Talbott’s traditional understanding of human rights as holding against governments and not also applying to nonstate actors; 2) his account of the interrelations am…Read more

94Coercion, care, and corporations: Omissions and commissions in Thomas Pogge's political philosophyJournal of Global Ethics 3 (3). 2007.This article argues that Thomas Pogge's important theory of global justice does not adequately appreciate the relation between interactional and institutional accounts of human rights, along with the important normative role of care and solidarity in the context of globalization. It also suggests that more attention needs to be given critically to the actions of global corporations and positively to introducing democratic accountability into the institutions of global governance. The article goe…Read more

141Structuring global democracy: Political communities, universal human rights, and transnational representationMetaphilosophy 40 (1): 24-41. 2009.Abstract: The emergence of cross-border communities and transnational associations requires new ways of thinking about the norms involved in democracy in a globalized world. Given the significance of human rights fulfillment, including social and economic rights, I argue here for giving weight to the claims of political communities while also recognizing the need for input by distant others into the decisions of global governance institutions that affect them. I develop two criteria for addressi…Read more
