Résumé
In Health Justice: An Argument from the Capabilities Approach, Sridhar Venkatapuram defends the case that theories of justice can be assessed by how adequately they protect a series of considerations of equal concern with reference to health. Throughout the book, Venkatapuram convincingly argues against what he calls the “blind spot in modern philosophy regarding the connection between the duty to show equal respect and concern and the causation and distribution of health” (Venkatapuram 2011, Introduction).
