The world community clearly needs a moral orientation to assess and reshape the global health architecture; it needs a moral compass to determine the best way forward. It needs a comprehensive theory of global health and a governance structure to effectuate it. Such a theory would enable analysis and evaluation of the current global health system; it would ground proposals, ethically and empirically, to reform global health and align the global system more closely with moral values. This chapter sets out the foundational components of a global health justice theory, arguing for universal ethical norms with shared global and domestic responsibility for health. It offers a global minimalist view, provincial globalism, as a mean between nationalism and cosmopolitanism, in which a provincial consensus accompanies a global consensus on health morality.
