In a supposedly 'global age', the late Jennifer Crawford has brought together a range of disciplines in her creation of a unified, sensitive 'way of knowing' for the global era. Drawing upon her academic and lived experience in philosophy, environmental science, social work and feminism, together with a deep spiritual commitment, Jennifer Crawford has deftly woven together complex ideas in her reconceptualisation of global justice. Unlike similar discussions of the inequities of globalisation, however, Jennifer Crawford's work resonates with wisdom, optimism and ideas for an alternative global ethic.
Jennifer Crawford worked as a field officer for the United Nations Food Programme in India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh before returning to Australia for a Masters in Environmental Studies and her Doctoral Studies in Philosophy, achieving her PhD which forms the basis of this book.
