Description
Understanding justice, for many, begins with questions of injustice. This volume pushes us to consider the extent to which our scholarly and everyday practices are, or can become, socially just. In this edited collection, international contributors reflect on what the practice of 'justice' means to them, and discuss how it animates and shapes their research across diverse fields from international relations to food systems, political economy, migration studies and criminology.
Giving insights into real life research practices for scholars at all levels, this book aids our understanding of how to employ and live justice through our work and daily lives.

Reviews / Votes
"The volume offers an important lens through which to scrutinize well-meaning attempts within the academy aimed at using research to create a more just world." International Journal of Urban and Regional Research "This book provides a rich set of examples of how scholars research justice, how it shapes what they study, and how it plays out in their research engagements and politics."
