| book description |

In face of historical injustices such as war, colonialism, slavery, and genocides, what responsibilities, if any, do the present generations owe â€“ and to whom are such responsibilities owed? Drawing upon methods of political theory, empirical politics, legal philosophy, and applied ethics, this book advances the novel account of Collective Moral Debt Reparative Justice (CMDRJ). It aims to establish that descendants of victims inherit claims to reparation by which they can hold inheritors of perpetrators responsible for discharging. This argument applies particularly well to collectives meeting the threshold for group agency and complicit agents. Not only does the concept of â€œmoral debtâ€ serve as an emphatic metaphor for the distinctive ways by which perpetrators and victims, descendants and inheritors are connected â€“ it also provides the compelling explanation hitherto missing as for why claims of reparative justice do not go away merely in virtue of the passage of time. The book should interest scholars and practitioners alike and has been written for those who are interested in what we owe others in relation to our past.
