Quick thoughts on social and distributive justice versus other forms, and political versus legal justice
So... after doing some reording of related to social and distributive justice I looked at a recent text on "justice" and distributive justice and social justice was a main concern of the book. This makes me think that there might be a split between justice as a political context (extending back to plato potentially) and as a legal concept. This makes me think that my early changes while WP:DUE from a legal angle aren't necessarily due from a philosophical / political angle.
I suspect that we might be trying to merge together the two together here in a way that doesn't line up with the literature. E.g. in law social justice is to some degree a newcomer (in the form of feminist jurisprudence) while in politics it is a larger concern - at least formulated in terms of individual distribution of wealth if not the more "popular" group-based / structural forms of understanding.
I'm not going to look at this now. But it'd be interesting to look at any texts that try to reconcile the legal with political concept of justice to guide us in how to best reconcile the two concepts. The "lumper" in me would like try to have a single conception rather than split everything in two - if there is the sourcing there to support us in doing so.
