In light of rising disparities in income, wealth, and access to opportunities across liberal societies, justice has become an important concern. This book explores the critical issue of social justice, examining how it should be assessed and distributed, including various perspectives such as utilitarianism, John Rawls's theory of justice, and the critiques posed by Hayek and Nozick. The book goes beyond Rawls's distributive justice approach, incorporating views from thinkers like Iris Young, Nancy Frazer, Axel Honneth, and Charles Taylor, as well as Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum’s capability approach. The work highlights the expanded conception of justice that includes ecological and environmental justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book also looks into the theme of social justice in India, with contributions from various scholars examining issues like caste, gender, marginalized communities, and the legal and economic frameworks surrounding justice in the Indian context.
