Description

Recent events have proved that colonialism has left indelible prints in history.

In 2013, the British Foreign Secretary apologized and promised compensation for the atrocities in Kenyan detention camps in the 1950s and the same year the heads of governments of the Caribbean Community issued a declaration demanding reparation for the genocide of indigenous populations and for slavery and the slave trade during colonialism The discussion and literature on global justice has mainly focused on distributive justice.

What are the implications of colonialism for a theory of global justice today?

What does rectificatory justice mean in the light of colonialism?

What does global rectificatory justice require in practice?

In seeking to answer these questions, the author fills a significant gap in the literature on global justice.
