Worldwide,
human lives are rapidly improving. Education,
health care, technology, and political participation are
becoming ever more universal, empowering human beings
everywhere to enjoy security, economic sufficiency, equal
citizenship, and a life in dignity. To be sure, there are some
especially difficult areas disfavored by climate, geography, local
diseases, unenlightened cultures, or political tyranny. There,
progress is slow, and there may be set-backs. But the affluent
states and many international organizations are working
steadily to extend the blessings of modernity through trade
and generous development assistance, and it won t be long
before the last pockets of severe oppression and poverty are
gone.
Heavily promoted by governments and media of the affluent
states, this comforting view of the world is widely shared, at
least among their citizens. Thomas
Pogge
s
new book presents
an alternative view: poverty and oppression persist on a
massive scale; political and economic inequalities are rising
dramatically both ¡ntra-nationally and globally. The affluent
states and the international organizations they control
knowingly contribute greatly to these evils
-
selfishly promoting
rules and policies harmful to the poor, white hypocritically
pretending to set and promote ambitious development goals.
Pogge s case studies include the $l/day poverty measurement
exercise, the cosmetic statistics behind the first Millennium
Development Goal, the War on Terror, and the proposed
relaxation of the constraints on humanitarian intervention.
This is a powerful
morai
analysis that shows what affluent
states would do if they really cared about the values they
profess.
Thomas
Pogge
is the Leitner Professor of Philosophy and
International Affairs at Yale University, Professorial Fellow at
the Centre for Applied Philosophy and Public Ethics of the
Australian National University, Adjunct Professor at the
University of Central Lancashire, and Research Director at the
University of Oslo Centre for the Study of Mind in Nature.
