But for whom is life just, how so, and why? And what is being done to correct persisting injustices? Blending macro-level global and national analysis with in-depth grassroots detail, the contributors highlight roots of injustices, how they are perceived, and efforts to alleviate them. Following up on issues raised in the groundbreaking best-seller Power and Popular Protest: Latin American Social Movements (California, 2001), these essays elucidate how conceptions of justice are socially constructed and contested and historically contingent, shaped by people's values and institutionally grounded in real-life experiences. The contributors, a stellar coterie of North and Latin American scholars, offer refreshing new insights that deepen our understanding of social justice as ideology and practice. 606 $aSocial justice$zLatin America 606 $aDemocratization$zLatin America 606 $aFree trade$xSocial aspects$zLatin America 615 0$aSocial justice 615 0$aDemocratization 615 0$aFree trade$xSocial aspects 676 $a303.3/72/098 701 $aEckstein$b Susan$f1942-$0133970 701 $aWickham-Crowley$b Timothy P.$f1951-$01720382 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809914703321 996 $aWhat justice? whose justice$94118985 997 $aUNINA
