Abstract

There is an extensive debate over
the concept of justice at the domestic level in political philosophy. However,
the concept of justice has recently morphed into a highly discussed research
object at the international level. The main purpose of this article is to map
out reasonable moral foundations for a theory of international justice by
appraising the theories of international justice and the critics of these
theories. After analytically examining the moral foundations of the theory of
international justice such as national sovereignty, duty to help, and the harm
principle, the study suggests that it is possible to construct a theory of
international justice based on human rights and freedoms.

ULUSLARARASI ADALETİN AHLAKİ TEMELLERİ

Abstract

Siyaset
felsefesinde adalet kavramını domestik bağlamda inceleyen kapsamlı bir tartışma
mevcuttur. Fakat son zamanlarda adalet kavramı, uluslararası bağlamda da yoğun
şekilde tartışılan bir araştırma nesnesine dönüşmüştür. Bu makalenin temel
amacı, siyaset felsefesi literatüründeki uluslararası adalet teorilerinden ve
bu teorilere yöneltilen eleştirilerden hareketle bir uluslararası adalet
teorisinin geçerli ahlaki temellerini ortaya koymaktır. Bu çalışmada, uluslararası
adaletin ahlaki temelleri olarak kabul edilen ulusal egemenlik, yardım etme
ödevi, zarar ilkesi analitik bir perspektifle incelendikten sonra insan hakları
ve özgürlükleri temeli üzerinde bir uluslararası adalet teorisini inşa etmenin
mümkün olduğu ileri sürülmektedir.
