- Global Poverty, Injustice, and Resistance subverts the debate on global inequality; instead of asking what the affluent owe to those in poverty, it asks what those in poverty can take from the affluent. The scope of the monograph is extensive, beginning with normative analysis of the nature of rights and then moving to four real world test cases: transnational social movements, irregular immigration, war, and terrorism. It grounds its argument in a highly original interdisciplinary approach which blends philosophy, international law, history, and international political studies. For example, the chapter on migration involved contrasting first-hand accounts of irregular migrants.
