Book Synopsis Injustice and Rectification by : Rodney C. Roberts
Download or read book Injustice and Rectification written by Rodney C. Roberts. This book was released on 2005. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to help answer two questions that Western philosophy has paid relatively little attention to - what is injustice and what does justice require when injustice occurs? Injustice and Rectification offers a taxonomy of justice, which sets forth an initial framework for a moral theory of justice and focuses on framing a conception of rectificatory justice. The taxonomy is ground for this book's eleven other essays, in which a diverse group of authors brings philosophical analysis to bear on the idea of injustice itself and on some important conceptual and normative issues concerning the rectification of injustice.
