Abstract

This article links some sociological concerns to the communitarian proposal of Michael Walzer and the spheres of justice. Starting from the basic premise that there can be no unique universal distributive criterion valid for all the spheres and that indeed all different spheres require different criteria, this paper tries to answer the following question: Based on the acknowledgement of certain urgent realities of today's world, what ideas of global justice may be valid, based on what fundamental criteria and, taking into account the diversity of social goods, for which spheres? Likewise, the spheres of money and political power are analyzed and two strategies to try to achieve global justice are also proposed: the Basic Civic Income in the sphere of money and the recognition of the plurinational State in the political sphere.
