Ethical Issues in the global political arena (poll)

[CHL]

This isn't necessarily asking what has happened thus far, but what should happen.

The cosmopolitan school of though argues that humanity is one single moral community regardless of state, culture or levels of economic development, and thus the same rules apply to all humans and all are treated equally; "we should recognize humanity wherever it occurs, and give its fundamental ingreidents, reason and moral capacity, our first allegiance" (Nussbaum)

The pluralist school argues that the global political arena is made up of seperate communities with some shared standards, "a world of diversity in which the variety of national cultures finds expression in different sets of citizenship rights and different schemes of social justice, in each community". (Miller).

The realist school argues that the global political arena is made up of individual states, each with their own standards, and no obligation to one another or common morality; "a foreign policy guided by universl moral principles...is under contemporary conditions...a policy of national suicide" (Hans Morgenthau)

Some mix between cosmopolitan and pluralist, but I am more concerned about class and the oppressed.

Cosmopolitan of course... That presumes that people generally want the same things and that is undoubtably true. They differ on totally minor things like religion etc. religion is totally minor in the grand scheme of things because governments are set up to produce and sustain a communal living enviroment that is beneficial to all peoples, in theory. When we have subversive interests that use whatever division to further their own gains, we get conflicts. Otherwise people left to their devices are communal animals that work toghether like any other communal animals.

Like Israel Palestine... While Israel is becoming a racist right wing apartheid state, the people are only moving in that direction because of their own greed and external influences which have been propagated by America to suit their gains. Otherwise, why would Tel Aviv Jews give a shyt about Ramallah having their own state? It literally doesnt effect them and they could easily be apathetic towards it as they were in years past. Foreign subversive influences aside, people are always gravitating to a peaceful normalized state of affairs.
