Description

Frontiers of Justice is a work of practical philosophy that addresses the world's pressing social justice issues. Martha Nussbaum tackles three urgent problems - those with physical and mental disabilities, all citizens of the world, and nonhuman animals - that current theories often neglect. She seeks a theory of social justice that can guide us towards a more responsive approach to social cooperation. Nussbaum's approach is guided by the idea that theories of social justice must respond to the real and changing dilemmas of the day. By examining these three key areas, she aims to develop a richer understanding of social justice and its application in everyday life. This book is a thought-provoking exploration of the challenges we face in promoting justice and equality in our societies. Through her analysis, Nussbaum offers a nuanced and practical framework for thinking about social justice. Her work is essential reading for anyone interested in philosophy, politics, and social justice.
