National Responsibility for Social Justice
There is ongoing debate about the responsibility of wealthy
nations to remedy social injustice around the globe. Those who
argue against offering aid to combat social injustice may point
to various failed initiatives as proof that the effort is not
worthwhile. Haiti, for instance, represents a bold example of a
costly and less than effective humanitarian aid mission. Despite
millions of dollars contributed for Haiti in the wake of the 2010
earthquake, there is little evidence that the aid helped the
country to recover efficiently. However, there are moral issues
concerning the need to protect and defend the privileges and
freedoms that define basic human rights. Is the answer for
wealthy nations to respond to any and all situations where basic
human rights are compromised, or should there be a limit
established based on the type or severity of the social injustice?
To prepare for this Discussion
:
Review the article, "World Poverty and Human Rights."
Consider theories of how nations cause and maintain poverty.
Think about reasons why nations may be responsible for
providing solutions to poverty.
Review the article, "Do We Owe the Global Poor Assistance or
Rectification? Response to World Poverty and Human
Rights." Consider the argument that nations help each other
and may not be responsible for global social injustice.
Review the article, "The Humanitarian Illusion." Reflect on
motives for providing aid.
Consider whether it is a moral responsibility for richer nations
to help poorer nations.
With these thoughts in mind
:
Post by Thursday 2/15/18
a 500-word response regarding your thoughts about whether or
not it is a moral responsibility for richer nations to help poorer
nations, and explain why. Justify your response with an example
that supports your rationale.
Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific
references to the Learning Resources.
