This book aims to help answer two questions that Western philosophy has paid relatively little
attention to - what is injustice and what does justice require when injustice occurs? Injustice
and Rectification offers a taxonomy of justice which sets forth an initial framework for a
moral theory of justice and focuses on framing a conception of rectificatory justice. The
taxonomy is ground for this book's eleven other essays in which a diverse group of authors
brings philosophical analysis to bear on the idea of injustice itself and on some important
conceptual and normative issues concerning the rectification of injustice.
