Social justice has been the animating ideal of liberal democracies in the 20th century. It is a concept familiar to most Indians but one where the meaning is not always understood. By tracing the trajectory of social justice from the colonial period to the present, this book examines how it informs ideas, practices and debates on discrimination and disadvantage today.
