{"product_id":"responsibility-for-justice-9780195392388","title":"Responsibility for Justice","description":"When the noted political philosopher Iris Marion Young died in 2006, her death was mourned as the passing of one of the most important political philosophers of the past quarter-century (Cass Sunstein) and as an important and innovative thinker working at the conjunction of a number of\u003cbr\u003eimportant topics: global justice; democracy and difference; continental political theory; ethics and international affairs; and gender, race and public policy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn her long-awaited \u003cem\u003eResponsibility for Justice\u003c\/em\u003e, Young discusses our responsibilities to address structural injustices in which we among many are implicated (but for which we not to blame), often by virtue of participating in a market, such as buying goods produced in sweatshops, or participating\u003cbr\u003ein booming housing markets that leave many homeless. Young argues that addressing these structural injustices requires a new model of responsibility, which she calls the social connection model. She develops this idea by clarifying the nature of structural injustice; developing the notion of\u003cbr\u003epolitical responsibility for injustice and how it differs from older ideas of blame and guilt; and finally how we can then use this model to describe our responsibilities to others no matter who we are and where we live. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith a foreward by Martha C. Nussbaum, this last statement by a revered and highly influential thinker will be of great interest to political theorists and philosophers, ethicists, and feminist and political philosophers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Iris Marion Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/19\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.97lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.20w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195392388\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIris Marion Young\u003c\/strong\u003e [deceased] was Professor of Political Science, University of Chicago.
