This book uses survey data in "hot spots" around the globe, to
analyse various models of social justice, particularly the
principle of equality, from a pragmatic perspective. Starting with
ordinary actors, social movements, and concrete contexts, the
authors question foundations of social and political democracy in
our times. They focus on how social actors deal with the principles
of justice and judgments of justice at work and in their social
lives. The book suggests that the increase in social
inequalities in recent decades contrasts with the blurring of the
aims of social justice. At a time when the reconsideration of
politics largely depends on its relevance to and aspirations for
social justice, the authors of this book question contemporary
developments by illustrating its variety, according to
specific historical, institutional, social and organizational
contexts.The book will be useful to  students and
scholars in the social sciences, especially those interested in
moral questions regarding social justice, from an empirical and
practical point of view.
