'Justice' and 'democracy' have alternated as dominant themes in political philosophy over the last fifty years. Since its revival in the middle of the twentieth century, political philosophy has focused on first one and then the other of these two themes. Rarely, however, has it succeeded in holding them in joint focus. This volume attempts to remedy this by bringing together leading authors to consider the relationship of democracy and justice. Here the intrinsic justness of democracy is challenged; the relationship between justice, democracy and impartiality queried; and the relationship between justice, democracy and the common good explored. Further chapters explore the problem of social exclusion and issues surrounding subnational groups in the context of democracy and justice.
