Perhaps its most influential advocate, Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus, has claimed that there is a human right to microfinance, given its potential for poverty alleviation. This book directs critical philosophical attention at this very widely used and praised poverty-reducing measure. In chapters that discuss microfinance schemes and models around the world, internationally renowned contributors address important questions about both the positive impact of microfinance and cases of exploitation and repayment pressure. Exploring how far microfinance can or should be situated within broader concerns about justice, this volume sheds light on ethical issues that have so far received little systematic attention, and it advances discussion on new human rights, exploitation, and global justice.<\/p>\n<div class=\"contentHidden\">\n<ul class=\"academicArrowList\">\n<li>Focuses on ethical issues arising in microfinance and will appeal to readers across the spectrum of development studies and ethical theory<\/li>\n<li>Advances the increasingly integral debate about the creation of &#8216;new human rights&#8217;<\/li>\n<li>Presents leading-edge thinking on what constitutes exploitation in the microfinance context<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Tom Sorell<\/strong>, <em>University of Warwick<\/em><br \/>\nTom Sorell is Professor of Politics and Philosophy and Head of the Interdisciplinary Ethics Research Group in the Department of Politics and International Studies at Warwick University.
