This book presents surveys of significant trends in contemporary
philosophy. Contributing authors explore themes relating to justice
including natural rights, equality, freedom, democracy, morality
and cultural traditions. Key movements and thinkers are considered,
ranging from ancient Greek philosophy, Roman and Christian
traditions to the development of Muslim law, Enlightenment
perspectives and beyond. Authors discuss important works, including
those of Aristotle, Ibn Khaldun, John Locke, Immanuel Kant and Mary
Wollstonecraft. Readers are also invited to examine Hegel and the
foundation of right, Karl Marx as a utopian socialist and the works
of Paul Ricoeur, amongst the wealth of perspectives presented in
this book. Through these chapters, readers are able to explore the
relationship of the state to justice and consider the rights of the
individual and the role of law. Contributions presented here
discuss concepts including Sharia law, freedom in the community and
Libertarian Anarchism. Readers may follow accounts of justice in
the Scottish Enlightenment and consider fairness, social justice
and the concept of injustice. The surveys presented here show
different approaches and a variety of interpretations. Each
contribution has its own bibliography.
