Injustice at Work

Though it is difficult to describe what a just world should be everyone is able to denounce injustice when he/she is a victim or a witness of it. Based on a long-term study of workers this new book tests and expands upon prevailing theories of justice by Rawls Nozick Taylor Walzer and other important philosophers. Injustice at Work describes the way workers perceive social injustice. It reveals why they so often feel unequal scorned dominated and alienated at work. The book develops three principles of justice-equality merit and autonomy-showing how individuals combine them in singular moral and social experiences that constitute peoples relation to society. Dubet also shows in a liberal and globalized society why it has become more and more difficult to denounce the social causes of injustice and fight them.
