In 'The Idea of Justice', Amartya Sen, Nobel laureate in Economics, offers an innovative perspective on social justice. Sen challenges conventional theories that seek to identify perfectly just societies, proposing instead a comparative approach that evaluates what is 'more' or 'less' just. His analysis focuses on respect for diverse perceptions of a 'just society,' integrating different points of view to construct a theory of justice applicable to the modern world. This book invites reflection on how to reduce global injustice, making use of the plurality of convictions to find clear and defensible solutions.
