Abstract
Based on a general understanding of what risks are, how they are dealt with, and the possible methods that can be used in risk management, this paper focuses more specifically on the two issues of ethics in clinical research and global justice (distributive justice on a global scale), and aims to examine how to best address risk management in those areas.
This paper is an English translation of the Japanese paper published in the Seibundoh HOUNORIRON (Theory of Law) 37, 2019.

A strict universalist believes that there is an imperative obligation to help all human beings, even if they were to beare suffering from starvation on a far off Planet X, and that the weight of this obligation is no different from the obligation to help local people who suffer similarly. Whether it can is technically be possible to do so or not is a different issue.
