Summary
In the rush to find answers to deal with the challenges of justice in diverse societies, sound normative foundations are often overlooked. This book examines questions raised by diversity and contributes to the ongoing dialogue which endeavours to better understand and respond to the challenges of justice in the context of diversity. Using specific and broader examples of injustices of religion, culture, race, ethnicity, gender, nationality and human rights, the book demonstrates how constitutional pluralist discourses can contribute both to new and legal responses to diversity. The book will be of interest to legal professionals, policy makers and scholars concerned with exploring the pluralities of diversity in the 21st century.
Excerpts
The Challenges of Justice in Diverse Societies focuses upon the terrain where law, constitutions and diversity meet. The work explores two critical issues: relations between constitutions and diversity beyond a rights focused dialogue; and the subtle shifts made by placing justice at the heart of the consideration of law's responses to diversity. The book suggests a need for and stimulates dialogue that goes beyond rights-based talk, and that considers diversity beyond equality and human rights.
