The power asymmetry between well-resourced foreign sponsors and local communities with limited bargaining power further amplifies concerns of unjust treatment and fears of exploitation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBy drawing upon arguments from health research ethics; political philosophy, particularly global distributive justice; and the literature on the principle of fair play, this book addresses a significant gap in the current discourse: the lack of a solid conceptual foundation for the claim that host communities are entitled to fair benefits. Felicitas Holzer discusses concerns related to structural injustice and proposes alternative mechanisms to secure fair benefits for host communities. Ultimately, Holzer argues that obligations of fair benefit-sharing arise from the requirements of fair cooperation between distinct stakeholders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFelicitas Sofia Holzer \u003c\/b\u003eis Postdoctoral Fellow at University of Zurich, Switzerland\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e29 October 2026\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9798216277743\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHardback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePage Count: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e308\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight (oz): \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16.0\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51331965616268,"sku":"9798216277743","price":103.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/getimage_70053108-5f50-4785-bc61-2ce5d7c8718f.jpg?v=1783600631","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9798216277743","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
