Abstract: Gillian Brock’s (2023) Corruption and Global Justice is a transformative contribution to the field of global justice theory, which links normative discourses on political corruption to an idea of global justice. In this article we introduce Brock’s argument that corruption is not merely a prac-tical impediment to global justice but a core normative concern, since it hinders the realization of human rights. We then situate Brock’s work within an established body of literature on political corruption and global justice theory, to highlight the original way she links these two discourses. Finally, we introduce the contributions to the symposium, which take Brock’s arguments as a point of departure for a series of probing questions. Precisely by raising these questions, the symposium demonstrates how Corruption and Global Justice succeeds in opening space for the kind of critical, philosophically grounded engagement that the pressing problem of corruption demands.
