Cécile Fabre is a Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, and Professor of Political Philosophy at the University of Oxford. She has written extensively on distributive justice, rights, democracy, and the ethics of war. She has previously published three monographs with Oxford University Press (Social Rights under the Constitution (2000), Whose Body is it Anyway? (2006), Cosmopolitan War (2012). She is a Fellow of the British Academy.
It is impossible to do justice in a review to the richness of the
argument as it unfolds across the ten chapters of Fabre's book.
Even as it sets out in a systematic way the case for a
philosophical analysis of the demands of peace under the terms of
cosmopolitan political justice, it never loses sight of the
constraints of practical politics, and the book frequently
demonstrates theory's ability to illuminate historical cases.
Throughout, it is meticulously argued, invigorating, and
provocative, and it will be essential reading for scholars of war
and peace working within philosophy, political theory, law, peace
studies, and other disciplines. Along with its sister volume,
Fabre's Cosmopolitan Peace is an extraordinary achievement.
