Matters of Economic Justice

Anthony Scaperlanda

Review of Social Economy, 1999, vol. 57, issue 4, 419-426

Abstract: Economic justice is an important subject to be studied by academics. It is also central to public policy debates on such issues as the need for adequate wages, the prevalence of poverty, and the adverse impacts of the globalization of production. Questions of economic justice are fundamentally questions about the ethics of income distribution. This is an introduction to a volume devoted to matters of economic justice. In it, I establish the importance of the subject, briefly describe the six articles in the volume, and present a set of principles and selected suggested readings to guide future discussions and study of economic justice.
