Social Justice: Critical Readings in Relevant Theory and
Contemporary Life Issues presents students with a collection of
multidisciplinary readings that discuss a variety of issues related
to justice and society. Readers are invited to read diverse
perspectives on what constitutes a just society and how inequities
can be resolved. They are then challenged to think critically about
what they've learned and how they can apply the lessons to their
future careers and their lives. The opening section introduces
students to two perspectives on justice-societal justice and
distributive justice. Additional sections feature readings that
discuss utilitarianism, libertarianism, communitarianism,
ecological living and environmental justice, and human rights and
restorative justice. Students read about war and its consequences,
including articles on the war on terror and human rights; the
rights of refugees, displaced individuals, and war-affected women;
and acts of genocide. Dedicated sections discuss solitary
confinement; race and ethnicity, and the causes of inequality; and
issues related to gender expression and disabilities. Closing
readings explore social justice and the future of fairness in
society. Featuring contemporary, relevant research, Social Justice
is an ideal anthology for courses in sociology and social justice.
