Abstract


This article, conceived as introduction to the monographical section of the present volume, treats to offer a panoramic exposition of the contemporary philosophical debates on the global reach of the concept of distributive justice: in a first step, globalization will be presented as imperative background for today’s reflexion on justice (1); in a second step, contrasting the before mentioned aspect, the State-centered character of the hegemonic conception of justice will be pointed out (2); in a third step, the globalist reactions to the dominant methodological nationalism will be considered (3); and finally shall be emphasized the need to configure universal global institutions that would permit the implementation of the universalist requirements of justice (4).
