‘We the globe can compass soon’
Journal of Applied Philosophy, vol. 17, no. 2, 2000, pp. 221–223
Abstract
A brief survey of recent philosophical literature relating to globalization. Three developments are distinguished: the now global extent of man-made environmental change; the world-wide scope of the capitalist economy; and the global reach of communication networks. These raise, respectively, questions about our global responsibilities, about global justice and about the way both of these can be brought home to us by global communications–all of which recent work has tackled.
