The discussion on global justice is vibrant and expanding. The discussion has mainly focused on one aspect of justice, namely distributive justice. But as Aristotle showed, there are also other “… species of the just …,” among them rectificatory justice (Aristotle, 1980: 114). In this book I argue for global rectificatory justice. The present global order (the global economy as well as global governance) mirrors colonialism in many respects. Hence we live in a post-colonial era and our understanding of global justice should reflect the legacy of colonialism. As a point of departure I will show how this history still stamps our world.
