Resumen de Globale Hilfspflichten aus dem Geist des Stoizismus?: zu Martha Nussbaums Konzept des Kosmopolitismus

Paul Tiedemann

• Until recently, the prevailing view has been that moral duties to global aid can only be justified from the spirit of utilitarianism. Martha Nussbaum attempted to show that these duties can be developed from Stoic ethics. This essay shows that Nussbaum’s attempt has failed. What Nussbaum considers as stoic is in fact based on a religious myth.
