Theoretical and practical analysis of global institutions for international aidThe philosophical foundations of global and international standards of distributive justice are controversial. Much has been done to assess such standards of aid, assistance, and redistribution, but are they achievable? Do they align themselves with viable organisational and institutional practices? The essays presented in this collection explore different fields of application of global and international standards of justice: humanitarian and development aid, health care assistance, reparations for historical injustices, the United Nations' Central Emergency Response Fund, and the global responsibility of the European Union - to assess the feasibility of conceptions of justice for the global sphere.Paulo Barcelos is a researcher and doctoral candidate in Political Science at the Nova Institute of Philosophy.Gabriele De Angelis is Research Fellow in Political Theory at the Nova Institute of Philosophy.
