Summary
In the chapter David Miller argues in favor of weak cosmopolitanism, as distinct from strong cosmopolitanism. The former amounts to recognizing the rights of strangers but within limits. In the process, David Miller outlines the key principles that enter his theory of global justice. This includes fair terms of interaction, self-determination and access to material resources. Miller discusses the question of immigration as a way to put to work, in concrete terms, his theory of global justice.
