The clear message proposed in this book is that justice matters for morality and desert matters for justice - and that emotions matter for desert justice and morality. Moreover and no less importantly justice education needs to take all those facts into consideration. KristjÃÂn KristjÃÂnssonâs new book falls on the cutting edge of the latest developments in justice discourse both in philosophy and in the social sciences. Written from a philosophical perspective it gives an accessible but penetrating exploration of various interlocking and interdisciplinary themes relating to justice. KristjÃÂnsson justifies the necessary interplay between philosophers and social scientists dealing with justice probes the role of desert in justice and explains the rising interest in the emotionality of justice. He then analyses the main desert-based emotions connects his discussion to recent trends in developmental and social psychology offers a moral justification of desert and desert-based emotions and concludes by applying all those ideas in a close study of how justice and desert should be handled in moral education at school. KristjÃÂnsson deftly weaves together insights from disparate academic areas relevant for justice in general and desert in particular. This is an engaging eye-opening and provocative book that should excite anyone interested in justice discourse and help generate debate in different areas related to justice: philosophical psychological and educational.
