This volume argues that the commitment to justice is a fundamental
motive and that, although it is typically portrayed as serving
self-interest, it sometimes takes priority over self-interest. To
make this case, the authors discuss the way justice emerges as a
personal contract in children's development; review a wide range of
research studying the influences of the justice motive on
evaluative, emotional, and behavioral responses; and detail common
experiences that illustrate the impact of the justice motive.
Through an extensive critique of the research on which some
alternative models of justice are based, the authors present a
model that describes the ways in which motives of justice and
self-interest are integrated in people's lives. They close with a
discussion of some positive and negative consequences of the
commitment to justice.
