Description

Injustice: Political Theory for the Real World challenges conventional approaches to addressing global injustices by offering a radical alternative. Michael Goodhart argues against the dominant paradigm, ideal moral theory (IMT), which he believes takes an incorrect stance on injustice. He also critiques leading alternatives that struggle to understand values in politics and abandon critical and prescriptive aims of political theory. Goodhart presents justice claims as ideological and introduces an innovative bifocal theoretical framework that reconciles realistic political analysis with substantive normative commitments. This approach allows theorists to address injustice politically rather than philosophically, providing a new method for combating injustice. The book outlines the potential contributions of political theory in this context and demonstrates its key arguments through a fresh interpretation of responsibility for injustice.
