Justice in a Non-Ideal World
Bridging the Gap Between Political Theory and Real-World Politics
Introduction
The realisation of justice in the real world requires political theory and political action. This book offers a road map for these two notions to connect.
Formulation of Action-Guiding Principles
It explains how action-guiding principles are formulated by seeking cross-disciplinary input. Also, it casts light on the concepts that occupy the space between political theory and real-world politics, which are often used as reasons to obstruct the progression of social justice, e.g. feasibility, fact-sensitivity, compliance and path-dependence.
Re-appropriation of Concepts
This book argues for a re-appropriation of these concepts in the name of justice. Many examples will be provided.
Focus on Climate Change
In particular, the book focuses on the case of climate change. It offers two case studies on the realisation of climate justice.
