Download or read book Justice for an Unjust Society written by Hennie P. P. Lötter and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 1993 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a theory of justice whereby people living in radically unjust societies may transform such societies in the direction of justice. The identification of injustice is addressed since a radically unjust society may well conceal its injustice from its victims. The book considers a range of moral and pragmatic requirements of political action in the transformation of society. A special feature of this work of theory is that it is illustrated by troubling examples drawn from the history of South Africa. The case made here is that justice is not just for just societies. It is for all of us everywhere.
