Synopsis
Nicholas Sagovsky explores 'justice' through its concrete expressions and through the reflection on those expressions within the tradition of the Christian community. He also engages with notions and practices of justice that make no reference to religious belief but are present and powerful in the public domain today.The book looks at the Greeks - not only the philosophers but the storytellers, poets, playwrights and historians - and at Augustine, Aquinas and Rawls. Its principal strands are the maximization of liberty, the existence of a system of law, the necessity to meet needs, and responsible action. It concludes with a moving chapter on justice and the Eucharist.
