Applicative Justice: A Pragmatic Empirical Approach to Racial Injustice

Applicative Justice: A Pragmatic Empirical Approach to Racial Injustice Book Cover

"Naomi Zack pioneers a new theory of justice starting from a correction of current injustices. While the present justice paradigm in political philosophy and related fields begins from John Rawls’s 1970 Theory of Justice, Zack insists that what people in reality care about is not justice as an ideal, but injustice as a correctable ill. Zack's theory of applicative justice offers a revolutionary reorientation of society's pursuit of justice, seeking to undo injustice in a practical and fully achievable way."
