Demands for redress of historical injustice are a crucial component
of contemporary struggles for social and transnational justice.
However, understanding when and why an unjust history matters for
considerations of justice in the present is not straightforward.
Alasia Nuti develops a normative framework to identify which
historical injustices we should be concerned about, to
conceptualise the relation between persistence and change and,
thus, conceive of history as newly reproduced. Focusing on the
condition of women in formally egalitarian societies, the book
shows that history is important to theorise the injustice of gender
inequalities and devise transformative remedies. Engaging with the
activist politics of the unjust past, Nuti also demonstrates that
the reproduction of an unjust history is dynamic, complex and
unsettling. It generates both historical and contemporary
responsibilities for redress and questions precisely those features
of our order that we take for granted.
