Product Description
Review
Rich, rewarding and refreshingly non-doctrinaire. . . . Paying tribute to David Miller's contextualized approach to issues of social and national justice, the contributors to this volume bring out the necessity of finding a balance between principles andpluralism in any responsible discourse on justice which would be of use in a perplexing and ever-changing world. This volume also shows how in their quest for justice, political philosophers need to go beyond a veil of ignorance by showing respect topeople's belief system and historical values in all their sometimes confusing variety --Shlomo Avineri
Product Description
What is justice? Great political philosophers from Plato to Rawls have traditionally argued that there is a single, principled answer to this question. Challenging this conventional wisdom, David Miller theorized that justice can take many different forms. In "Forms of Justice", a group of political philosophers takes Miller's theory as a starting point and debates whether justice takes one form or many. Drawing real world implications from theories of justice and examining in depth social justice, national justice, and global justice, this book falls on the cutting edge of the latest developments in political theory. Sure to generate debate among political theorists and social scientists, "Forms of Justice" is valuable reading for anyone attentive to the intersection between philosophy and politics.
