Justice in a Non-Ideal World : Bridging the Gap Between Political Theory and Real-World Politics, Hardback Book

Justice in a Non-Ideal World : Bridging the Gap Between Political Theory and Real-World Politics Hardback

Part of the Studies in Social and Global Justice series

Hardback

Description

The realisation of justice in the real world requires moral principles and political action.

This book offers a roadmap for these two notions to connect.

It explains how action-guiding principles are formulated by seeking cross-disciplinary input.

Also, it casts light on the concepts that occupy the space between political morality and real-world politics, which are often used as reasons to obstruct the progression of social justice, e.g. feasibility, fact-sensitivity, compliance and path-dependence.

This book argues for a re-appropriation of these concepts in the name of justice.

Many examples will be provided, but the book focuses especially on the case of climate change.

It will offer a detailed case study on the realisation of climate justice.
