Frontiers of Justice

Martha Nussbaum's 'Frontiers of Justice' extends the concept of justice beyond traditional boundaries to include those often marginalized or overlooked in justice theories.

Nussbaum argues for a capabilities approach, emphasizing what individuals are actually able to do and be, rather than focusing solely on resource distribution.

The book addresses justice for people with disabilities, global justice, and justice for non-human animals, challenging conventional notions of social contract theory.

She proposes a set of core capabilities that societies should strive to provide for all individuals, ensuring a life of dignity and well-being.

The work offers a framework for addressing inequalities and promoting more inclusive and equitable societies.
