Reparations and Reparatory Justice
2024
Overview
Changes at the global, federal, state, and municipal level are
pushing forward the reparations movement for people of African
descent. The distinguished editors of this volume have gathered
works that chronicle the historical movement for reparations both
in the United States and around the world.
Sharing a focus on reparations as an issue of justice, the
contributors provide a historical primer of the movement; introduce
the philosophical, political, economic, legal and ethical issues
surrounding reparations; explain why government, corporations,
universities, and other institutions must take steps to
rehabilitate, compensate, and commemorate African Americans; call
for the restoration of Black people's human and civil rights and
material and psychological well-being; lay out specific ideas about
how reparations can and should be paid; and advance cutting-edge
interpretations of the complex long-lasting effects that
enslavement, police and vigilante actions, economic discrimination,
and other behaviors have had on people of African descent.
Groundbreaking and innovative, Reparations and Reparatory
Justice offers a multifaceted resource to anyone wishing to
explore a defining moral issue of our time.
