Social justice is a concept which is widely touted and lauded as
desirable, yet its meaning may differ depending on whether its
focus is on the underlying values of social justice, the more
specific objectives these entail, or the actual practices or
policies which aim to achieve social justice. In the current global
political context, we need to re-examine what we mean by social
justice, and demonstrate that "making a difference" and
contributing to human flourishing is more achievable than this
context would suggest. The book aims to increase our sense of being
able to enact social justice, by showcasing different ways of
contributing to social justice, and "making a difference" in
different settings and different ways. Part 1 introduces a fluid
and contextual approach to social justice. Part 2 examines social
justice and faith perspectives, such as Christianity, Judaism,
Islam and community organisations. Part 3 illustrates perspectives
on children, the family, sport and local government. Part IV
provides perspectives of social justice in education. Considering
concepts of citizenship and social justice from a variety of
contemporary perspectives, Everyday Social Justice and Citizenship
should be considered essential reading for academics and students
from a range of social scientific disciplines with an interest in
social justice, as well as those working in education, community
work, youth work and chaplaincy.
