Pursuing justice is a moral imperative that has practical value as a cost-efficient way of dealing with conflict. This case study in applied ethics and social theory patiently explains how justice in the new South Africa restores humanity and establishes lasting peace, whereas injustice in apartheid South Africa led to conflict and dehumanization.Value Inquiry Book Series ;56.The Case of South AfricaPolitics and governmentSocial conditionsPolitics and government.Social conditions.968.06Lötter H.P.P.
