Social Justice and Development (Hardcover, First)

Development and social justice are intrinsically linked. The articulation of social justice is constrained by political forces, and governance which perpetuates inequality. Poverty and inequality are quintessentially issues of social justice, not only within the nation state but between nation states. Morvaridi extends the theory of social justice to a global level, providing a new contribution to the development debate. Morvaridi analyzes radical changes within the institutions of Global Governance - IMF, The World Bank, WTO. This book examines the emergence of a rights-based approach to development as a means to addressing social injustice, poverty and inequality and considers the extent to which it has been able to influence development thinking.
