Abstract

"This book examines how states should prioritize their global responsibilities. States face multiple ongoing and emerging challenges, from climate change to global disease, mass atrocities to forced displacement, humanitarian crises to entrenched global poverty, and are constrained by material and political limits to the amount of resources that they can devote to these issues. How should states decide which issues to prioritize and which crises to address? To answer this question, the book proposes a two-level account of just prioritization that aims to be both philosophically sound and practically relevant. It assesses several potential prioritization principles, including diversification, culpability, urgency, disadvantage, and national interest, and argues that states should prioritize issues where they can assist most effectively and where they can help those who are most underprivileged"
