"Gillian Brock's Corruption and Global Justice is an impressively encompassing yet concise work that puts forth a compelling argument as to why addressing corruption is a necessary condition for realizing human rights and achieving the goals of global justice, despite being a problem largely overlooked by academics and actors working towards such goals.Uniquely persuasive in her empirically informed normative methodology are the solutions offered for addressing corruption that work within existing frameworks and human rights practices, and the multi-level approach to assigning such responsibilities, including both remedial and forward-looking responsibilities." -- Philosophy in Review"Despite the massive size of the global justice literature, Brock's book is one of the first - perhaps the first - to focus specifically on corruption in relation to global justice. It would be an important work for this reason alone, but it also has many other virtues which should make it the touchstone of the topic going forward . Brock is correct that corruption is an important problem and that global justice theorists have not given it the attention it deserves. And many of her proposals are worth taking seriously . the topic is ripe for further work, and Brock is to be commended for bringing it to the table." -- Matthew Lister, Ethics".
