What Is Structural Injustice? is the first edited collection to bring together the voices of leading structural injustice scholars from politics, philosophy, and law to explore the concept of structural injustice, which has now become a central feature of all three disciplines and is considered by many to be a ‘field of study’. The volume features specially selected original and essential works on structural injustice. The volume provides a range of disciplinary, ontological, and epistemological perspectives on what structural injustice is and includes feminist and postcolonial theories to interrogate how structural injustice exacerbates and reproduces existing inequalities and relations of power. This book is a touchstone text for those interested in the different ways we can understand structural injustice, how it manifests, how it relates to other forms of injustice, who is responsible for its redress, and the different ways we might go about it. This book will appeal to a wide audience of students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, as well as the general academic population, experts on structural injustice, interested practitioners in politics, and members of the public
