Justice-a word of great simplicity and almost frightening scope.
When we were invited to edit a volume on justice in law, we joked
about the small topic we had been assigned. Often humor masks fear,
and this was certainly one of those times. Throughout the project,
we found daunting the task of covering even a fraction of the
topics that usually fall under the umbrella of justice research in
law. Ultimately, the organization of the book emerged from the
writing of it. Our introductory chapter provides a road map to how
the topics weave together, but as is so often the case it was
written last, not ?rst. It was only when we had chapters in hand
that we began to see how the many strands of justice research might
be woven together. Chapters 2-4 on the basic forms of
justice-procedural, retributive, and distributive-are the lynchpin
of the volume; they provide the building blocks that permit us to
think and write about each of the other substantive and applied
chapters in terms of how they relate to the fundamental forms of
justice. In the large central section of the volume (Chapters 5-9),
the contributors address many ways in which the justice dimensions
relate to one another. Most important for law is the relationship
of perceptions of procedural justice and the two types of
substantive justice-retributive and distributive.
