Apology and acknowledgement -- 5. Legitimacy and the cast of history -- 6. Elusive justice -- 7. A chastened liberalism.<br/>"Governments today often apologize for past injustices and scholars increasingly debate the issue, with many calling for apologies and reparations. Others suggest that what matters are victims of injustice today, not injustices in the past. Spinner-Halev argues that the problem facing some peoples is not just the injustice of the past, but that they still suffer from injustice today. They experience what he calls enduring injustices, and it is likely that these will persist without action to address them. The history of these injustices matters, not as a way to assign responsibility or because we need to remember more, but in order to understand the nature of the injustice and to help us think of possible ways to overcome it. Suggesting that enduring injustices fall outside the framework of liberal theory, Spinner-Halev spells out the implications of arguments for conceptions of liberal justice and progress, reparations, apologies, state legitimacy and post-nationalism"-- Provided by publisher.<br/>1.Justice.2.Social justice--Philosophy.3.Social change--Political aspects.4.Reconciliation--Political aspects.#41564LCCN: 20110-46103320.01/1 |
