Description

Research Group “Social and Political Philosophy” (FISOPOL) – Instituto de Filosofía – Centro de Ciencias Humanas y Sociales

Research Group:  Social and Political Philosophy

 

Multidisciplinary research in political philosophy in order to develop a theory of justice that takes into account and relate temporal dimensions (memory), spatial (global justice), narrative (narrative and iconography of justice) and cultural diversity (cultural turn in the humanities and social sciences and their relevance to a theory of justice).

Project description:

Within the framework of the research group, our aim is to introduce a global perspective in the normative study of human mobility analyzing the following points:

 

A.The formulation of an integral notion of justice from a cosmopolitan perspective that takes into account three main dimensions of justice: the socioeconomic dimension related to redistribution; the cultural dimension related to the recognition and respect of particular identities compatible with human rights; and the political dimension, related to representation in the public sphere.

B.The analysis of the intersection of these three dimensions of justice with the structural inequality associated with the native/foreigner dichotomy. We undertake the study of these relations with special care to avoid the methodological nationalism in the reference theories and the exclusionary bias in the normative orientation of migration policies.

C.The aproximation to a cosmopolitan or transnational citizenship that serves as a guarantee of political, socio-economic and cultural rights. Special emphasis will be put on how the criteria of redistribution of wealth could be integrated in the core of human rights discourse and practice in accordance with the imperatives of social justice.
