Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Demands for redress of historical injustice are a crucial component of contemporary struggles for social and transnational justice. However, understanding when and why an unjust history matters for considerations of justice in the present is not straightforward. Alasia Nuti develops a normative framework to identify which historical injustices we should be concerned about, to conceptualise the relation between persistence and change and, thus, conceive of history as newly reproduced. Focusing on the condition of women in formally egalitarian societies, the book shows that history is important to theorise the injustice of gender inequalities and devise transformative remedies. Engaging with the activist politics of the unjust past, Nuti also demonstrates that the reproduction of an unjust history is dynamic, complex and unsettling. It generates both historical and contemporary responsibilities for redress and questions precisely those features of our order that we take for granted. Should we care about the injustices of the past? Does history matter when we think about current gender inequalities? Advancing the argument that we cannot 'let bygones be bygones', this book will appeal to anyone interested in the persistence of gender inequalities within our contemporary societies. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …
