Résumé
Global justice is an issue in political philosophy arising from the concern about unfairness. It is sometimes understood as a form of internationalism. Norwegian philosopher Henrik Syse claims that global ethics and international justice in the western tradition form part of the tradition of natural law: the topic has been organised and taught within Western culture since Latin times of Middle Stoa and Cicero, and the early Christian philosophers Ambrose and Augustine. Syse states This early natural-law theorising teaching centred around the idea of a ius naturale, i.e., a system of right which is natural and as such common to all people, available to humankind as a measuring stick of right and wrong. Per the American political scientist Iris Marion Young "A widely accepted philosophical view continues to hold that the scope of obligations of justice is defined by membership in a common political community. On this account, people have obligations of justice only to other people with whom they live together under a common constitution, or whom they recognize as belonging to the same nation as themselves." English philosopher David Miller agreed, that obligations only apply to people living together or that are part of the same Nation. What we owe one another in the global context is one of the questions the global justice concept seeks to answer. There are positive and negative duties which may be in conflict with ones moral rules. Cosmopolitans, reportedly including the ancient Greek Diogenes of Sinope, have described themselves as citizens of the world. William Godwin ( Utilitarian thinker and anarchist) argued that everyone has an impartial duty to do the most good he or she can, without preference for any one human being over another. The broader political context of the debate is the longstanding conflict between local institutions: tribes against states, villages against cities, local communities against empires, or nation-states against the UN. The relative strength of the local versus the global has decreased over recorded history.

Citoyenneté mondiale
La citoyenneté mondiale est une citoyenneté non reconnue officiellement que s'attribuent les citoyens du monde, personnes qui estiment que les habitants de la Terre forment un peuple commun avec des droits et devoirs communs, en dehors des clivages nationaux, et qui placent l'intérêt de cet ensemble humain au-dessus d'intérêts locaux ou nationaux. Le concept général de citoyen du monde trouve son origine dans le stoïcisme, dont les philosophes sont les premiers à s'identifier comme citoyens du monde.
Internationalisme institutionnel
L’internationalisme institutionnel est un concept de la théorie des relations internationales, désignant un supranationalisme qui prône le développement de la coopération institutionnelle entre États-nations. Il vise une organisation du monde basée sur le développement des accords et échanges entre les États-nations et des institutions de concertation et coopération entre eux, sous la forme notamment d'organisations internationales. L'internationalisme, basé sur des relations intergouvernementales, repose sur la volonté des États-nations et de leurs dirigeants.
Democratic globalization
Democratic globalization is a social movement towards an institutional system of global democracy. One of its proponents is the British political thinker David Held. In the last decade, Held published a dozen books regarding the spread of democracy from territorially defined nation states to a system of global governance that encapsulates the entire world. For some, democratic mundialisation (from the French term mondialisation) is a variant of democratic globalisation stressing the need for the direct election of world leaders and members of global institutions by citizens worldwide; for others, it is just another name for democratic globalisation.
