Media Reviews
[Justice in a Changing World] is a remarkably engaged introduction of cutting-edge theoretical debates on social justice which demonstrates how normative arguments in political theory engage with pressing issues in contemporary politics ... Fabre succeeds in bringing out the nuances and complexities of each issue, helpfully guiding the reader through the debate but showing that there is no easy answer. This is an excellent starting point for anyone wishing to learn more about the subject. Political Studies Review Reading Fabre's book is an excellent way to learn the subject. It is accessibly written, but comprehensive, and especially good on the contemporary issues of international and multicultural justice. Harry Brighouse, University of Wisconsin In Justice in a Changing World, Cecile Fabre deftly combines a clear discussion of current debates about justice with a presentation of their stringent application to some of the most pressing and intractable problems in contemporary politics. Both analytical and engaged, this is a first-rate introduction to a major area of political theory. All those interested in the topic can learn a great deal from this book.
