Abstract:

Resumen: En este artículo se realiza un breve recorrido por las teorías de la justicia distributiva más influyentes, partiendo de John Rawls y terminando con los principios propuestos por Martha Nussbaum para el desarrollo de una justicia global. En ese recorrido veremos cómo responden esas teorías a tres preguntas: qué se distribuye, cómo se distribuye y entre quiénes se distribuye. Esto nos permitirá comparar sus fundamentos y sus principios de distribución justa, así como comprender mejor sus límites. Palabras clave: bienes primarios, capacidades, comunidad, igualdad, justicia global, principio de diferencia, renta básica, suerte, utilitarismo. Abstract: This article offers a brief overview of the most influential theories of distributive justice, starting with John Rawls and ending up with Martha Nussbaum´s principles for a global justice. Along this way we will see how they answer these three questions: what to distribute, how it is distributed and among whom it is distributed. This will allow us to compare its foundations and principles of fair distribution, as well as to better understand its limits. Keywords: basic income, capabilities, community, difference principle, equality, global justice, luck, primary goods, utilitarianism.

Abstract:

RÉSUMÉ Cet article examine les positions de John Rawls par rapport à la justice retributive (pénale). Nous soutenons d'abord que la perspective de Rawls est éclectique par rapport aux deux polarités exemplaires de la justice pénale soit, en première part, celle du rétributivisme et de l'utilitarisme, et, en seconde part, celle du déontologisme et du conséquentialisme. L'examen des textes révèle que la pensée de Rawls conjugue des éléments qui la qualifient à la fois comme rétributiviste et déontologiste et d'autres qui la rapprochent de l'utilitarisme et du conséquentialisme. Les positions de Rawls sont ensuite scrutées à la lumière des résultats récents de la recherche empirique sur la justice pénale. Nous soutenons alors que la conception rawlsienne de la justice pénale comme un processus sanctionnateur de nature strictement réactive fpost factoj ne peut se concilier avec les aspects pro-actifs de plus en plus affirmés de ce type de justice. On suggère enfin que le principe de Rawls que l'inégalité n'est légitime que lorsqu'elle profite aux plus défavorisés n'a que peu d'application au sein de la justice pénale, dont la cible première est précisément constituée par les pauvres et les sans-pouvoirs.

Abstract:

This doctoral thesis investigates contemporary disputes about international distributive justice by first outlining a distinctive human rights approach to the issues and then assessing alternative views of various kinds. The thesis is organized in terms of the dispute between cosmopolitans and communitarians on the question of ethics in international political theory. Part One of the thesis, 'Cosmopolitanism,' outlines and evaluates the most significant cosmopolitan theories of international justice. Following an introductory chapter in which the debate is introduced in a general way. Chapter Two focuses on basic human rights. Chapter Three is on utilitarianism, and Chapter Four investigates Onora O'Neill's Kantian approach to international justice. I conclude that the human rights approach, conceptualized in a distinctive form, is the most promising of these alternatives. Part Two of the thesis, 'Communitarianism,' investigates various "communitarian" challenges to the universalist ambitions of the arguments defended in Part One. These challenges are designed to prove that the pretensions of cosmopolitans are illusory, incoherent, overridden by some morally more important considerations, or otherwise wrong-headed. Constitutive theorists maintain that, while there are perhaps good grounds for recognizing the claims of human beings qua human beings, cosmopolitans fail to take proper account of the value of what we might call certain intra-species collectivities, most importantly, sovereign states (Chapter Eight). Relativists hold that justice is subject to community-relative standards that make cross-cultural comparisons impossible. Hence, universal claims to justice make no sense (Chapter Seven). Defenders of nationality base their conclusions on the ethical value of the 'nation,' and sometimes claim that distributive justice can be discussed properly only within the context of a given national community (Chapter Six). Patriots emphasize devotion to one's country as a primary moral virtue, and conclude that such devotion, in practice, amounts to legitimate favouritism for compatriots and, therefore, at least potentially, the denial of some of the claims of non-compatriots. If such a view requires the denial of the full force of human rights claims, then patriotism conflicts with cosmopolitanism (Chapter Five). The argument of Part Two is that, on the whole, the communitarian challenges do not succeed. Nevertheless, there are significant lessons to be learned from the criticisms in each case. The defence of cosmopolitanism is strengthened by exposure to these objections, even though they do not provide any grounds for rejecting the basic human rights claims of individuals.

Full text

Abstract:

The rapid emergence of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) over the past decades together with a lack of research into new drugs presents health care systems with serious challenges and threatens their ability to effectively treat serious bacterial infections. As a result, it is realistic to expect that effective treatment options for some infections will run out in the future. The thesis begins by outlining the mechanisms and consequences of AMR and argues that AMR differs from other distributive problems, due to the specific characteristics of antibiotics. It is suggested that for considerations of distributive justice, antibiotic effectiveness should be treated as a resource, which can be depleted and which must be fairly distributed between people and generations. The thesis then goes on to examine the distinctive moral challenge posed by AMR. It begins by considering a consequentialist account, which suggests that AMR is a moral problem due to the bad health outcomes it entails. However, this approach is subsequently dismissed because it struggles to account for some of the particular features of AMR. An alternative is to consider AMR as a morally wrongful harm to individuals, which requires not only that AMR has adverse effects, but also violates the victim’s rights. It is shown that the harm caused by AMR is morally wrongful and that people have a right to be protected from adverse health outcomes, which AMR violates. However, it is difficult to specify correlative duties that result from such a rights claim. As an alternative, the thesis suggests and defends a form of Scanlonian contractualism, which offers the best model to represent and address issues of distributive justice in the case of AMR. It is shown that a principle of antibiotic use, which rules out the use of antibiotics for infections that do not pose a serious risk of irreversible harm, offers a convincing contractualist argument. The thesis examines the concerns for intergenerational justice that arise as a consequence of AMR and shows that contractualism is capable of addressing them. The thesis concludes by suggesting a new way of framing AMR as a specific type of policy challenge, which better captures its complexity and advocates a reduction of future dependency on antibiotics.

Abstract:

Justice is a key guiding ethical principle in bioethics. When justice is addressed in bioethics the focus is primarily on the fair distribution of resources, that is, distributive justice. In this thesis, I argue that a distributive conception of justice is unable to adequately address many of the relevant issues of justice within bioethics. These issues are better understood and addressed using a social conception of justice. Social justice is concerned with ensuring that the norms and rules of social structures are fair and equitable. I argue that social and distributive justice are not only compatible, but also complementary. As a result, both conceptions of justice need to be applied to bioethical issues if we are to achieve a truly just outcome. As a case study, I apply this analysis to the controversial issue of the inclusion of pregnant women in clinical research trial.

Abstract:

Public goods are goods that are non-rival and non-excludable. One person enjoying the benefits of a public good will not reduce the value of the good for others. And nobody within a particular population can be excluded from enjoying those benefits. While we often think of the relevant population being co-citizens of a state - national defence is taken to be the archetypal public good - in recent years the importance of public goods that benefit individuals across different countries has increasingly been recognised. We can refer to these as "global public goods". When global public goods are supplied, various costs and benefits are generated, and these costs and benefits can be shared among countries in different ways. This thesis explores how justice requires us to share them; I develop a theory of distributive justice for global public goods. I begin by developing two principles for assigning the costs and benefits of supplying public goods within a state, and then argue that these should, for the most part, also govern the distribution of costs and benefits arising from global public good production. Finally, I assess how certain private goods that the supply of public goods make possible should be shared among states. The fact that these goods rely for their production on the supply of global public goods, I argue, will affect the principles of distributive justice that should govern these.

Mestrado em Gestão de Recursos Humanos
O tema deste trabalho encerra duas temáticas fundamentais no contexto organizacional, o cyberloafing, isto é o uso indevido da internet no local de trabalho e a justiça organizacional. A presente investigação tem como propósito identificar as diferentes atividades de cyberloafing e analisar de que forma as perceções de justiça organizacional podem estar relacionadas com a prática de cyberloafing. Optou-se pelo modelo tetra-dimensional de justiça organizacional que integra: justiça distributiva, justiça procedimental, justiça interpessoal e justiça informacional. Para o efeito, foi aplicado um inquérito por questionário electrónico a uma amostra constituída por 194 indivíduos com acesso à internet no local de trabalho. Como resultados finais, considerou-se que as perceções de justiça não estão relacionadas com a frequência nem com a duração da utilização da internet para fins pessoais, mas com atividades específicas de cyberloafing.
The subject of this work involves two fundamental themes of the organizational context cyberloafing, misuse of internet in the workplace and organizational justice. This investigation has the purpose of identifying the different activities of cyberloafing and analyze on which way the organizational justice perceptions may be related with the practice of cyberloafing. It was chosen the tetra-dimensional model of organizational justice which includes: distributive justice, procedural justice, interpersonal justice and informational justice. For this purpose it was applied an electronic questionnaire to a sample of 194 individuals with internet access at work. As final results it was considered the justice perceptions are not related to the frequency, nor to the time spent using the internet, but are related to specific activities of cyberloafing.

Abstract:

The present report is the outcome of a research project commissioned by Zero Waste Scotland and carried out by the Just Transition Hub (JTH), University of Dundee, with the objective of understanding the ways in which the cost-of-living crisis has affected the attitudes and behaviours of individuals and communities towards a transition to a low-carbon economy in Scotland. We define the transition as encompassing both energy transition and the transition to a circular economy, so in this report the word “transition(s)” means both the referred transitions. We define the scope of “justice” to cover three dimensions – distributive, recognition and procedural. Briefly, distributive justice concerns the ideal of a fair share of the benefits and costs of the transition among different communities and stakeholders. Recognition justice respects the proper acknowledgement of marginalised individuals and communities who may be living in deprived urban areas. Procedural justice respects inclusion and effective participation of all, including marginalised actors, in public debate and decision-making. The study involved a literature review in narrative form (chapter 2) and a smallscale exploratory study (chapters 3 and 4), using a multi-strategy approach that included seven individual semi-structured expert interviews, four semi-structured citizen/consumer focus groups and one semi-structured expert focus group. Both the literature review and the empirical research adopted a thematic analysis approach, with clear research objectives identified in a standardised analysis framework. The present research is part of a broader series of investigations commissioned by Zero Waste Scotland to understand circular economy perspectives and sustainable decision-making in times of crises to help inform Zero Waste Scotland’s communication, engagement and further research for a just transition. The present study is complemented by parallel research being conducted by the University of Highlands and Islands with a focus on rural communities.

Abstract:

In democracies, protests are often viewed by citizens as a costly last resort measure to demand more economic and political rights and resources from policymakers by whom they feel unheard. When citizens feel unheard, they may protest. A stark example of this was the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests ignited by the killing of George Floyd. Over 15 million people participated in BLM protests in 2020 alone, and the protests in the 2010s resulted in it being labelled the ‘decade of protest.’ Many of these protests have highlighted distributive justice claims, from reparations to descendants of African slaves to redistribution of economic capital.

The Latin America and the Caribbean region has benefited significantly from economic growth driven by the extractive sector. At the same time, the region has experienced high levels of conflicts related to this sector. This paper presents an overview of citizens' perceptions of the extractive industries in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela. Using a representative sample for each country, we identify regional and country-specific determinants of the Social License to Operate (SLO). The SLO is an unwritten license of social approval accorded to extractive projects by citizens. In this paper, we investigate a generalized version of the SLO, capturing public sentiment toward the mining and the oil and gas sectors in general. While our findings confirm that perceptions vary across countries, we show that governance is the strongest predictor of trust between citizens and the extractive sector, which is consistent with the evidence in the literature. In addition, procedural justice, distributive justice, and nationalism play essential roles in shaping individuals' attitudes. These findings suggest that strengthening government institutions could contribute to the prevention of conflict around extractive industries.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes how e-commerce dynamics unfolded during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, using a unique, composite dataset focusing on GoFood merchants on the Gojek Indonesia platform. It expands the analysis of the platform efficiency contributions into static efficiency and dynamic efficiency perspectives. There are three key findings: online platforms like Gojek offered a novel form of social safety nets for micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises; as the COVID-19 pandemic intensified, market congestion externalities and cannibalization tendencies emerged; and women- and men-owned businesses opted for different crisis-mitigation and coping strategies. This study also demonstrates that the rapid acceleration of digital transformation presents unique research opportunities on distributive justice, external effects, and scale economies.

Abstract:

Environmental justice (EJ) activists have long worked with abolitionists in their communities, critiquing the ways policing, prisons, and pollution are entangled and racially constituted (Braz and Gilmore 2006). Yet, much EJ scholarship reflects a liberal Western focus on a more equal distribution of harms, rather than challenging the underlying systems of exploitation these harms rest upon (Álvarez and Coolsaet 2020). This article argues that policing facilitates environmentally unjust developments that are inherently harmful to nature and society. Policing helps enforce a social order rooted in the ‘securing’ of property, hierarchy, and human-nature exploitation. Examining the colonial continuities of policing, we argue that EJ must challenge the assumed necessity of policing, overcome the mythology of the state as ‘arbiter of justice’, and work to create social conditions in which policing is unnecessary. This will help open space to question other related harmful hegemonic principles. Policing drives environmental injustice, so EJ must embrace abolition.

Abstract:

This case study is produced as part of the IEA Users TCP Research Programme: Empowering all. Gender in policy and implementation for achieving transitions to sustainable energy. It contributes to providing an understanding of the systematic inertias in the sociotechnical energy system that appear to be hindering the development and implementation of gender aware energy policies. The case study focuses on a condition known as ‘energy poverty’ and how it is currently addressed in the context of the Netherlands. The case study looks how the issue of energy poverty is framed and policy responses are formulated in the Netherlands. It identifies which government actors are involved in addressing energy poverty and assess whether there is sufficient capacity to respond, particularly in a gender-aware way, to a complex, multi-dimensional problem. It draws on an exploratory study which set out to gain insights into the mindsets of municipal policy workers in the Netherland working on mitigating energy poverty (Kreuger, 2023). The findings of the study are supported by a literature review. The data analysis uses the concept of energy justice which provides an understanding of how benefits, costs and risks of the energy transition are distributed in a society across three dimensions which provide an analytical framework: distribution, procedural and recognitional 1. A gender lens is applied to the framework, to provide a more nuanced understanding of how the energy transition may unevenly distribute benefits, costs and risks, thereby producing new inequalities or exacerbating existing ones. This analysis can be taken a step further by using an intersectional approach that disaggregates data across different groups without prioritising one category of social difference, such as income levels (Yuval-Davis 2016).

Abstract:

Land reforms sacrifice property rights in the name of a fairer distribution. The trade-off they imply makes their study of interest to Economic Historians: do the benefits of reduced land inequality justify the violation of property rights? The discussion about land reforms factors in both the social and efficiency consequences of land inequality. The debate preceding the Portuguese Agrarian Reform echoes these concerns and culminated in an anti-latifundia sentiment crystallized in the legislation used to justify the land occupations of 1974 to 1976. The aim of this paper is to critically assess the efficiency arguments used to justify the occupations. Was land productivity lower in latifúndio counties? A unique dataset drawn from primary sources was specially assembled to answer this question. Through standard OLS regression, this study finds that the number of agriculture journeyman per employer landowner has a statistically significant effect on agricultural productivity after controlling for geographical and soil characteristics. It also finds that introducing literacy as a control causes the effect of land inequality to disappear leading to the conclusion that policies aimed at improving human capital would have been just as effective as a land reform. Further, this study also identifies the crop mix selected as the proximate channel of transmission. Farmers in the region with the highest levels of land inequality favoured less valuable crops, like wheat. An arid climate combined with a lack of irrigation infrastructure and wheat protectionism justify this preference.

Full text

Abstract:

Indonesia has done much to improve access to education in recent decades but it has had little success in improving learning outcomes. This paper examines the political origins of this problem. It argues that Indonesia’s learning crisis has reflected the political dominance during the New Order and post-New Order periods of predatory political, bureaucratic and corporate elites who have sought to use the country’s education system to accumulate resources, distribute patronage, mobilize political support, and exercise political control rather than produce skilled workers and critical and inquiring minds. Technocratic and progressive elements, who have supported a stronger focus on basic skills acquisition, have contested this orientation, with occasional success, but generally contestation has been settled in favour of predatory elites. The analysis accordingly suggests that efforts to improve learning outcomes in Indonesia are unlikely to produce significant results unless there is a fundamental reconfiguration of power relations between these elements. In the absence of such a shift, moves to increase funding levels, address human resource deficits, eliminate perverse incentive structures, and improve education management in accordance with technocratic templates of international best practice or progressive notions of equity and social justice—the sorts of measures that have been the focus of education reform efforts in Indonesia so far—are unlikely to produce the intended results.
