Perceptions of Justice - Paperback

by Terry Lewis (Author)

If justice is blind, what guides her steps?

Is justice, like beauty, in the eye of the beholder? Are there objective criteria we can apply and if so, to which do we give more weight? What is more important, a fair result or a fair process? What is the relationship between law and justice? How do the stories we tell both reflect and affect our perceptions of justice.

Using works of literature, scenes from films, and actual cases as springboards for reflection and debate, Perceptions of Justice seeks answers to such questions, offering readers an opportunity to understand how they determine what is fair and just, and why others may see it differently.
