GLOBUS
Reconsidering European Contributions to Global Justice
Status
Completed
Duration
01.06.2016–31.05.2020
Since its inception, the European Union has proclaimed an ambition to promote justice at the global level. But what precisely is the EU’s contribution to global justice? And what could a just foreign policy look like?
GLOBUS is a research project that critically examines the European Union’s contribution to global justice.
Challenges to global justice are multifaceted and what is just is contested. Combining normative and empirical research GLOBUS explores underlying political and structural obstacles to justice. Analyses of the EU’s positions and policies are combined with in-depth studies of non-European perspectives on the practices of the EU. Particular attention is paid to the fields of migration, trade and development, cooperation and conflict, as well as climate change.
GLOBUS will use official documents and media debates to analyse justice conceptions within the fields migration, climate change, cooperation and conflict and trade and development. We will collect and analyse news articles and TV/radio broadcasts as well as official documents already publicly available. In the course of our analysis, we will collect and temporarily store information on individuals whose names and statements appear in the documents that we analyse.
GDPR rights apply for all persons whose data we will be processing throughout the course of the project (see articles 15-21 of the GDPR). This entails that all such persons have the right to:
Ask for access to their personal data being processed.
Request that their personal data be deleted.
Request that incorrect personal data is corrected/rectified.
To receive a copy of their personal data (data portability).
In select cases, we publish analysis that may directly or indirectly identify public persons or private individuals and their opinions. Please contact research advisere Geir Kværk (g.o.kvark@arena.uio.no) if you:
Identify yourself in our work as one of these individuals and have any concerns regarding your GDPR rights.
Identify yourself as having contributed your opinions in any of the texts that will appear listed here and have any concerns about the way we have processed and stored your personal data.
