Examines Rawls's view on the dencency of some religious regimes, and argues that his methodology requires his approval of the justice of some religious regimes, rather than merely their decency.

The US-led invasion of Iraq is an attractive case to assess against the framework of just war theory, which has influenced the Bush administration’s effort to construct a moral and political basis for launching the war. On the whole, the just war tradition has developed with a rich historical significance when it comes to evaluating the moral and political implications of warfare. The advantage of just war theory is that it recognizes conflict among states and seeks to constrict its destructiveness and frequency by demanding the observance of jus ad bellum, jus in bello, and jus post bello moral principles. For some, this article may appear as an unethical relaxation of moral structures designed to constrain the use of force. Others may interpret the argument as an exaggeration of moral concerns and international restraints. The goal here is to tap the just war tradition, which at times allows for the use of force with limitations, in observing and assessing jus ad bellum considerations in the Bush administration’s case for war against Iraq.

J. Miller
In the run-up to and aftermath of the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, it became something of a commonplace for many on the American left to label US policy as a return to an imperial colonialism. The critique was far from unanimous, though, as the editorial boards at the New York Times and the New Republic together with a number of prominent leftists coalesced into a supposedly new entity, the ‘liberal hawk’ who envisions using American military might to secure human rights and to spread democracy. Of course, the liberal hawk is not really new; many eighteenth and nineteenth century liberal intellectuals defended the same sorts of claims. John Stuart Mill, for instance, argues in Considerations on Representative Government that while some nations are already candidates for representative government, ‘there are others which have not attained that state, and which, if held at all, must be governed by the dominant country, or by persons delegated for that purpose by it’ (Mill, 1861: 345). In an essay explicitly addressing the topic, ‘A Few Words on Non-Intervention’, Mill outlines a set of criteria for just interventions in other nations. Not coincidentally, liberal hawks often take ‘A Few Words’ as their starting point for intervention. This return to Mill is not without its problems, as a number of commentators note. After (in)famously labeling all non-Western nations ‘barbarians’, Mill argues that those nations ‘have not got beyond the period during which it is likely to be for their benefit that they should be conquered and held in subjection by foreigners’, claiming further that they must be held in this fashion until such time as the inhabitants can be made ready for civilization (Mill, 1859a: 406). So the question, then, is whether the humanitarian intervention advocated by liberal hawks is really just colonialism in another form. Are such missions really humanitarian or are they imperialist adventures thinly veiled by disingenuous moral language? Certainly it is true that there are those who speak in boldly colonialist language, characterizing American soldiers in Iraq as occupation

On 24 June 2005 the International Bioethics Committee (IBC) of the United National Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) issued a ‘Universal Draft Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights’ (hereafter, BHR). I was delighted with the document from the moment I read its title. Leading American bioethicists (Beauchamp, 1998; Macklin, 1998) had criticized my contention that any attempt to construct international bioethics by searching for principles of common morality would prove feckless; the best hope for international bioethics, I had argued, lay in negotiated rules bounded by a cosmopolitan conception of human rights (Baker, 1998a, 1998b, 1998c, 2001). The term ‘human rights’ in the proposed title of BHR seemed to confirm my position, and thus – since confirmation is not one of the delights philosophy usually offers its practitioners – the very title of the document gave me a tinge of satisfaction. Satisfied philosophers, however, serve little function. As John Stuart Mill famously implied of Socrates, a certain level of intellectual dissatisfaction is written into the job description. Returning to my role, in this paper I draw on my earlier analysis to assess whether the BHR provides an adequate framework for international bioethics.
2005年6月24日，联合国教育、科学及文化组织(UNESCO)的国际生物伦理委员会(IBC)发布了《生物伦理与人权世界宣言草案》(以下简称BHR)。从我读到标题的那一刻起，我就对这份文件感到高兴。美国主要的生物伦理学家(Beauchamp, 1998;麦克林(Macklin, 1998)批评了我的论点，即任何试图通过寻找共同道德原则来构建国际生物伦理学的尝试都将被证明是无能的;我曾说过，国际生物伦理学的最大希望在于以世界性的人权概念为界限的协商规则(Baker, 1998a, 1998b, 1998c, 2001)。拟议的BHR标题中的“人权”一词似乎证实了我的立场，因此——既然证实不是哲学通常给实践者带来的快乐之一——该文件的标题本身就给了我一丝满意。然而，满足的哲学家起不了什么作用。正如约翰·斯图亚特·密尔(John Stuart Mill)对苏格拉底(Socrates)的著名暗示，某种程度的智力不满被写进了工作描述。回到我的角色，在本文中，我利用我之前的分析来评估BHR是否为国际生物伦理学提供了一个足够的框架。
