aBrings to the forefront the hope of articulating theories and
practices for a world in which the presence of domination and
exclusion is so insiduous. Granted, it is a fragile hope, but it is
still a hope.a
--"Perspectives on Politics"
Political exclusion and domination are common forms of injustice
in democratic societies. What is at stake in choosing one or the
other as a way of conceptualizing injustice? Can either concept
serve as a master concept for all injustice, or do the phenomena of
injustice require a more complex array of analytic categories?
The contributors to this volume explore the concepts of
exclusion and domination from a wide array of theoretical
approaches--liberal and republican, feminist and pluralist. They
address topics ranging from racial segregation to criminal
sanctions, from the role of the political philosopher to the
instruments of genocide. They disagree--sometimes mildly and
sometimes profoundly--over how we should construe the forms of
exclusion and domination that most command our attention.
Ultimately, these authors shed important light on the meaning of
justice and injustice in contemporary society.
Contributors: Danielle Allen, Michael Blake, Sanford Levinson,
Catharine MacKinnon, Martha Nussbaum, Philip Pettit, James Tully,
