Outline of Final Research Achievements

The project was conducted in two-year activities of (a) theoretical investigation and (b) field research in India, with 4 book chapters (2 in English; 2 forthcoming), one single-authored article (English) and another as second author (English). Thus far the research reached the conclusion that (i) contemporary Global Ethics has been culturally biased and therefore globalized ethics; and (b) the conception of 'Balance of Justice' may be a useful supplement for advancing global justice in Post-Western direction.
